De glimlach van een kind
Willeke Alberti Lyrics
Jij bent zo wijs, dat zegt een kind
Jij bent zo grijs, dat zegt een kind
Jij bent getrouwd, dat zegt een kind
Jij bent al oud, dat zegt een kind
Dan denk je "ja, een rimpel meer"
Je wordt al echt een ouwe heer
Maar voor je denkt "hoe moet dat nou"
Pakt ze je hand en lacht naar jou
De glimlach van een kind doet je beseffen dat je
leeft
De glimlach van een kind dat nog een leven voor
zich heeft
Dat leven is de moeite waard
Met soms wel wat verdriet
Maar met liefde, geluk en plezier in 't verschiet
De glimlach van een kind
Dat met een trein speelt of een pop
Zo'n glimlach maakt je blij
Daar kan geen feest meer tegenop
Wat geeft het of je ouder wordt
Dat maakt toch niks meer uit
Want je voelt je gelukkig al heb je geen duit
refr.
Lalala lalaa lalalalalalalala
Lalala lalalaa lalalalalalalala
Lalalala lalalala
Lalalalalala lalala lalala lalala lalala

De mooiste "smartlap" allertijden ! Mooi dat Johnny het opnieuw op heeft genomen met zijn moeder, ten bate van het vergeten kind! Ik ben vaak depressief, maar als ik dan bij mijn kinderen/ kleinkinderen ben, gaat het stukken beter met mij!

Willy Alberti had een prachtige stem, daar is geen speld tussen te krijgen.
John van der Geest
Ik vind de ondersteunende 2e stem van Willeke in die andere toonhoogte zo mooi. Dat geeft bijna onopvallend een hoop extra kwaliteit.
Johnny M
A very touching song, I love it

Beste Vlinderke ... het maakt niet uit of je maar 21 jaar bent ..... een mooi lied door twee gigantische toppers binnen het Nederlandse lied, vader en dochter Alberti, is op alle leeftijden te waarderen! Dit behoort tot de klassieke muziek binnen de Nederlandse liederen en zangers en zangeressen.
