Come Little Children
Erutan Lyrics
Come Little Children
I'll Take Thee Away, Into A Land
Of Enchantment
Come Little Children
The Time's Come To Play
Here In My Garden
Of Shadows
Follow Sweet Children
I'll Show Thee the Way
Through All The Pain And
The Sorrow
Weep Not Poor Children
For Life Is This Way
Murdering Beauty And
Passions
Hush Now Dear Children
It Must Be This Way
Too Weary Of Life And
Deceptions
Rest Now My Children
For Soon We'll Away
Into The Calm And
The Quiet
Come Little Children
I'll Take Thee Away, Into A Land
Of Enchantment
Come Little Children
The Time's Come To Play
Here In My Garden
Of Shadows

I love this. The song is about trying to take the children away to keep them innocent from all the pain and sorrows of life. A impossible task but one every parent wishes to do

The fact it says โhush now dear children. It must be this way, weary of life and deceptionsโ it is about telling children their fate is to die and to accept that they are about to die
Harrypotterfan334
No. Itโs about children dying

I see/hear it as the opposite. Her "garden of shadows" is life and how much it sucks and she is taking them to play in it...

Uh... Here in my garden of shadows? Rest now my children?
Are you sure?
... It sounds more like a lullaby before euthanasia. ๐ฌ

It always feels like it's describing death to me, come to take us 'children' away, when it's time for us to die...
That also seems to fit more with the original purpose for the movie it was written for
The Jupiter 2
I deeply fell in love with this song when it originally was sung by the pretty blonde Witch Sarah in the Disney movie Hocus Pocus it was called Sarah's theme in the movie and was a shorter version of this and then Kate Covington recorded this longer version of the same song.

@Rebekah Martin Brock Walsh wrote the original lyrics and James Horner composed the song specifically for Hocus Pocus back in 1993. These lyrics first surfaced around 2002, with the false attribute to Edgar Allen Poe. The rest is all urban legend, there is no older original, though the theme of the song has vague similarities to William Blake's The Stolen Child poem.

It wasn't originally from Hocus Pocus, they adapted the original for the film.

Such an emotional and sad song. Sometimes life is unfair and children who shouldn't have lose their lives, they end up losing it...
