[HANASHIR:14849] Re: wedding songs...

[Carol Boyd Leon <cbleon...>]

Dear Angela,

Perhaps the following wedding song (which also has a set of anniversary 
lyrics) is the kind of song you're looking for.  As you requested, it is 
indeed simple and sweet.  Cheesy?  Well, I try not to write cheesily -- 
how's that for an adverb? -- but what one feels are simple and sweet lyrics 
another might feel is cheesy.  Anyway, please contact me if you're 
interested.

"Forever Dodi Li" *
c 2002 by C.B.Leon

Dodi li, as I give to you this ring
I join my soul to yours
For whatever life may bring.
Dodi li, as we journey through the years
I'll hold your hand in mine,
Sharing happiness and tears.

The world is always changing, and so are we.
But still, my love, forever you'll be dodi li.

Ha-rei at m'ku-de-shet li,
We stand beneath the chuppah
And dream of what could be.
Ha-rei a-tah m'ku-dash li,
You are my heart's desire
Joined in holiness to me.

Dodi li, may the sharing of our love
Fill the years that lie ahead
And be blessed by God above.
Dodi li, of the blessings that I've known,
The most wondrous of them all
Is that you're my very own.
