The answer is: An infant struggles in an unsafe world.

In the poem "Infant Sorrow," William Blake conveys the parents of the baby are not happy for his birth, and that once the child grows up, he will not receive care and nurture anymore. On the other hand, he will be sent to work as a factory worker under insecure conditions - deprived from any joy and happiness.
