But distance can never weaken our relationship,
For what is in our minds and hearts
Is stronger than any outside force,
And when we are together again,
Our relationship will be that much more intense and beautiful.

Daughter,
Like lovely flowers,
Filled the world with happiness.

Just how dear
You’ve always been
Or how precious
Are the joys you’ve given
Time and time again—
It’s impossible to measure
Just how much
We’re wishing you
The very best things possible
Now and your whole life through.
