For My Friend Trevor

A lovely morning’s knocking on the door
Come here, Trev, it’s time to make a wish
Your birthday’s dancing rumba on the floor
And for your dreams is waiting a goldfish.

So many gifts from family and friends
So many words are filled with love and joy
Let all the best things never end
And life gives daily presents to enjoy .

Let a wonderful princess in a nice dress
With hands that aren’t scared of some work 
Says that your heart’s exactly her address
To raise the children and do the housework.

And let your home be comfortable and warm 
And let the children’s voices there  sound 
Your parents in “grandparents uniform”
Let every weekend come around .

Let God and Angels always take your hand
And give you health and a good fate
You’re worth of everything the best on our land
Good things won’t make you long await
