Below are the translated lyrics:
A baby, hovering in heaven before coming to earth, asks God:
âThey told me that youâre sending me to earth tomorrow, but how will I be able to live there, as Iâm so small and defenseless?â
God: âAmong all the angels, I chose one especially for you. Your angel will wait for you and will take care of you!â
The child asks again: âBut tell me, here in heaven, I donât have to do anything but sing and laugh to be happyâŠâ
God says: âYour angel will sing for you and will also smile for you every day. You will feel your angelâs love for you, and you will be very happyâ.
The child asks: âHow will I be able to understand when people talk to me if I donât understand heir language?â
God says: âYour angel will speak to you the most beautiful and tender words youâve ever heard before and with patience and care, your angel will teach you how to talk.â
The child: âAnd what should I do when I would like to talk with you?â
God:Â âYour angel will put your hands together and will show you how to pray.â
The child: âIâve heard that on earth, there are mean men. Who will protect me?â
God: âYour angel will defend you, even at the risk of her own life.â
The child: âBut I will be sad to not be able to see you anymore!â
God: âYour angel will talk to you about me and will show you how to come into my presence. And, I will always be there, beside you.â
At that moment it was very quiet in heaven, but voices from earth could be heard and the child asked, âGod, if I must leave now, please tell me, what is the name of my angel?â
GOD:Â âYour angel is named âmamaâ.
âWhat is the name of my angel?
Your angelâs name is âmamaâ.
