On a day like this,
what can I give, what can I bring to you?
On a day like this,
what can I say, what can I sing to you
On a day where everything does meet -
White shells shine beneath your feet
the sun is high and warms the breeze
As you rush through pine trees
on your way to the sea...
May the wind be gentle yet strong
Speed you boat on the course
that you both have agreed on.
May the sun shine warm upon your deck,
and in the darkest night
May the stars came out to help you navigate.
You're not naive,
you know the couse that is ahead of you
Won't be all rose cakes
and little waves and candy dolphins, too
But I'm sure the two of you
Will make a hell of a fine crew!
If one should ever fall overboard
Your honey pulls you out safely.
Warms you dry, enfolding you...
May the wind be gentle yet strong
Speed you boat on the course
that you both have agreed on.
May the sun shine warm upon your deck,
and in the darkest night
May the stars came out to help you navigate.
And I wish that once,
when you both want, and when the time is right,
Your little ones will thrive
and fill you both with joy and with delight.
May they inspire yet shake your life,
sleep more than four straight hours at night,
be brave (especially the girls!), and fond
and really careful near the pond -
always nice to their dear aunt...
May the wind be gentle yet strong
Speed you boat on the course
that you both have agreed on.
May the sun shine warm upon your deck,
and in the darkest night
May the stars came out to help you navigate.
