the youngest of two he shall be
with the name "God has given," thee
Nathanael, a kindled spirit
the wide sky is your life's limit
such gentle, delicate being
with features we are now seeing
his father's pure obsidian hair
along with his mum's skin so fair
possessing his grandmum's grey eyes
and his sister's familiar guise
a modest heart of gold, you are
born with much love to take you far
