May your love be like the ocean
Ever peaceful and carefree
May your fondness and devotion
Last throughout eternity
May your dreams be like a feather
Made to float upon the air
As you spend this life together
Bound within the love you share.

May your love be like a beacon
Serving as your blessed guide
May your spirit never weaken
As you pass each test in stride
May your memories be measured
By the years that you shall see

And the tidings ever treasured
That shall form your legacy.

May your love be like the glory
In the sun’s rich morning rays
May your visions write a story
To rest in your hearts, always
So that every day you borrow
Shall be free from all despair

As you face each new tomorrow

Bound within the love you share.
