When a Child Is Born [French translation]

A ray of hope flickers in the sky

A tiny star lights up way up high

All across the land dawns a brand new morn

This comes to pass, when a child is born

A silent wish sails the seven seas

The winds of change whisper in the trees

And the walls of doubt crumble, tossed and torn

This comes to pass, when a child is born

A rosy hue settles all around

You got the feel, you're on solid ground

For a spell or two, no one seems forlorn

This comes to pass, when a child is born

"And all of this happens because the world is waiting

Waiting for one child

Black, white, yellow - no one knows

But a child that will grow up and turn tears to laughter

Hate to love, war to peace

And everyone to everyone's neighbour

And misery and suffering

Will be words to be forgotten forever"

It's all a dream, an illusion now

It must come true - sometime soon somehow

All across the land dawns a brand new morn

This comes to pass, when a child is born
