What adventures lie in wait
For you, what simple twists of fate
Will shape your destiny?
How will fortune dictate
Your journey?
If God exists, I'll ask him this:
Protect this little one with all of His
Heavenly power, wrapped in a kiss –
But tiny creature, never fear,
If there's no God or he cannot hear
Those who love you will be there
To love, to hold, to feed, to care.
Go forward, tiny creature, go
Yours is the day that's yet to come
Yours is the world I'll never know;
May those tiny, sleepy eyes
Some day see where a better future lies.
Pretend I can cast some magic spell –
I do it now and wish you well:
Enjoy your life, enjoy the show,
And as you grow, the world will grow.
