You were formed and fashioned
from the two of us,
A cherished token of our love
Your acclimation filled my grove
As we awaited your precious birth.

The sun was in the sky
As birds practiced their lullaby,
A hint of fragrance on the breeze
Yielded scents of thee as flowered trees.

Tafur, babe so meek and mild,
Our greatest gift is you, our child
May the joy of life be yours
In love and laughter through the years.

You are bits of stardust blown
from the merging of two lovers alone,
Many obstacles you'll face
just journey on, touch rainbows on the way
And remember you are, our blessing every day.
