Child, Why Do You Cry?

Child, why do you cry?
For what reason is this sorrow?
I tell the truth, I cannot lie,
Of your life an Angel would borrow.

I see clear, and from what I see,
There is a person full of heart.
I don't know, what you wish to be,
Only yourself, if you were smart.

Cry on now, don't stop 'til the sun,
Go on 'til your heart is dry.
Tomorrow I can promise you fun,
For I tell the truth, I cannot lie.

Go forth, your happiness awaits,
Alone on your shoulders it rests.
Slowly your sadness will surely abate,
And rid you of the knot in your chest.
