Eurovision 1992 Malta:
Mary Spiteri - "Little Child"
Little Child
Little child, your look - it pains me
It's an answer your eyes seek
Can't you see what shadow of a soul
I've come to be tired of the scene
Little child, come sit beside me
It's so much I have to say
Stay as free as high winds on the seas
No destiny bringin' lonely tears
Smile, live today, and leave the past behind
Live it up day by day, and surely you may find
That both sorrow and tomorrow
Aren't worth a thought or two
Look at me and teach me to live again
Little child, your look elates me
It's an answer your eyes give
Now, you see, I'm on the road again
I'm bringin' out what child there's in me
Smile, live today, and leave the past behind
Live it up day by day, and surely you may find
That both sorrow and tomorrow
Aren't worth a thought or two
Look at me and teach me to live again
Live again
Sing, live today, this moment can't endure
Oh… let us reach for the stars - we'll make it, I'm that sure
Be it sadness, be it gladness, we can start it all anew
Look at me, look at me, аnd the sun comes ѕhining through
Tfajjel ċkejken
Tfajjel ċkejken, tħarisx lejja
B'mistoqsija f'għajnejk sbieħ
Tar mar riħ, iż-żmien tal-logħob ferrieħ
Il-ħsibijiet tellfu kull mistrieħ
Tfajjel ċkejken, ejja ħdejja
Ngħidlek ġrajja li thennik
Għożż ġo fik, il-ġmiel li d-dinja 'ttik
La tħallihiex, tnikktek u bikkik
Tbissem illum, il-bieraħ għadda u mar
Għix il-jum wara jum u għada qatt ma sar
Għax l-uġiegħ tal-lum biżżejjed
Dak li ġej ma jafu ħadd
'Tini jdejk, għallimni ngħix aħjar
Tfajjel ċkejken, ħares lejja
Twettaqx l-għelt li għamilt jien
Taħlix żmien, l-imgħoddi kien li kien
Bla tifkiriet, isbaħ u il-ġejjien
Tbissem illum, il-bieraħ għadda u mar
Għix il-jum wara jum u għada qatt ma sar
Għax l-uġiegħ tal-lum biżżejjed
Dak li ġej ma jafu ħadd
'Tini jdejk, għallimni ngħix aħjar
Ngħix aħjar
Ifraħ illum, daż-żmien kemm jista' jdum?
Ħatja jien daqs l-oħrajn, li ѕibt xifer l-irdum
Jekk ħallejna dinja mejta, minn kull tama' ċaħħadnik
'Tini jdejk, 'tini jdejn, aħfrilna dan l-imrаr
