1. FOREVER YOUNG- BOB DYLAN
María Suárez García y Lucía Tomé del Río

2. LYRICS
May God bless and
keep you always,
May your wishes all
come true,
May you always do
for others
And let others do for
you.
May you build a
ladder to the stars
And climb on every
rung,
May you stay
forever young,
Forever young,
forever young,
May you stay
forever young.
May you grow up to be righteous,
May you grow up to be true,
May you always know the truth
And see the lights surrounding you.
May you always be courageous,
Stand upright and be strong,
May you stay forever young,
Forever young, forever young,
May you stay forever young.
May your hands always be busy,
May your feet always be swift,
May you have a strong foundation
When the winds of changes shift.
May your heart always be joyful,
May your song always be sung,
May you stay forever young,
Forever young, forever young,
May you stay forever young.
