I'd give you a dozen fireflies

I'd give you a dozen fireflies

To shine some light on your face -

Surpassing a lamp and compass

In finding your way home.

I'd give you some honey bees

So they might hum you a tune

For when silence intrudes -

Knowing their song will overcome

But I don't have either of these

So instead I pray you always

Find a light amid the dark

And keep a tune in your heart.
