Summertime
Summertime, and the livin' is easy Fish are jumpin' and the cotton is high Oh, your daddy's rich and your ma is good-lookin' So hush little baby, Don't you cry
One of these mornings you're gonna rise up singing And you'll spread your wings and you'll take to the sky But 'til that morning, there ain't nothin' can harm you With Daddy and Mammy standin' by
Summertime, and the livin' is easy Fish are jumpin' and the cotton is high Oh, your daddy's rich and your ma is good-lookin' So hush little baby, Don't you cry
A Blessing
Kia hora te marino Kia whakapapa pounamu to moana Kia tere to karohirohi Ma Io koutou e mamaaki e tiaki I nga wa katoa.
May peace be widespread, Widespread as the sea glistening like smooth greenstone, May the shimmer of light guide you May peace be widespread now and forever more May God bless you and protect you for all time.
