Here is large grassland
It's a fine, warm afternoon
You're sitting in the shade of a big
tree
A soft, gentle breeze
strokes your cheeks
There comes a little child
off the back of the tree
About the
age of five
This is the inner
child in your heart
An old memory
which has sunk deeply for a long time
Since the time you were a little child
The child seems to want to tell you
something
Let's hold the child in
your arms
And listen to everything
the child wants to say
An
innocent, bashful child with crystal-clear eyes
Long before you have grown up
The child says in a small voice:
'I'm scared'
'I'm sad'
'I'm
lonely'
'Mum and Dad don't care for
me'
The inner child in your
heart
Still exists long after you
have grown up
The child may try
itself being a good kid
Not to
bother the parents, repressing the desire
To be praised as a good kid by
everyone The inner child in your
heart
Still there even though you
have come of age
The child may not
be fulfilled with affection
It may
be disturbed by other siblings
Or
parents may be too busy to look after you
Let's hug the child
wholeheartedly
And tell the child 'I
love you'
'You're not alone
anymore'
'You're fine just as you
are'
'You're my precious just as you
are here'
This may be the inner child
in your heart
Has been sleeping
for a long time
Even after you
have grown up
The child comes up
to you suddenly
Just as young you
were as a little child
