For my daughter

I wish you will never know the hardships of life.

I wish you’d never know

the hardships of life

Never wail endlessly into the night

Never have a  broken heart.

or know of struggle and strife

For you, my darling, I want only light.

 

That butterflies and ferries follow your way.

Never letting you out of their gaze.

That you’ll sing every day of your life,

never lonely or sad, always bright.

 

But I know, my angel, that cannot be.

The pain of living you will come to see.

I can’t carry your every sorrow.

But I will walk by your side, today and tomorrow.
