Engine failure on take-off

I know that this question has most likely been asked before, but I have searched the forum and can't find it. I am hoping that there will be a friendly airline pilot here who will answer it and not shout at me.

If a TWO-engine passenger jet (a 737 for example) loses an engine immediately after take-off (within 0-10 seconds of leaving the ground), is there any chance of bringing it back down safely?

I'm sorry if the answer is bleedingly obvious, but I've not found it yet.
