May you be inscribed in the Book of Life
The Book of Life (Gott Nytt År till Er Alla!)
May you be inscribed in
the Book of Life
May you grow
strong and sweet
and take
good Husbands
and Wives
May your gardens grow
green and bear you much
fruit, yield
oranges and apricots
and vines of grapes with
deep healthy roots
May your sons
and daughters keep
dear your traditions
and stories and
into the World
secure and curious
set afoot
May their paths
intertwine through
out their lives
May they ride horses
and swim in pure lakes
walk by the sea and in
the meadows gather flowers
for fragrant teas
And may sweet music
come to your ears
May you be there
for each other to comfort
the aches and the pains
and Yes may the New Year
bring honey from fine
combed hives
and may you gather
together to
Celebrate Life
