may the clouds always part
when you wish to view the moon
may rain fall upon your crops
and send them into bloom

may you see the best of joy
all throughout your life
may the sun shine warmly down
when you must experience strife

may the world always greet you
with arms open, strong, and kind
may you always find the courage
to truly speak your mind

may you always seek the truth
where ever it might be
may the waters smooth for you
should you choose to be at sea

may the path be clear and clean
may you never go astray
but if your heart shall falter, know
you are stronger than today

and may those you love surround you
when at last the end draws near
and may you always keep in mind
that we have always held you dear
