Children: Their Cry and Chuckle

A nursery song by Mujeeb Jaihoon about the cry and chuckle of little ones.

Children are full of joy
Though in need, they do cry

Singing and murmuring when alone
Jumping with joy when in fun

Lovingly eat chocolates and ice-creams
Dear to them, too, are their parents

They cry when scolded
Chuckle when pampered

From the Almighty Lord
They are a precious gift
