Ellali mein Engel, 

meine Prinzessin, 

mein Sunshine,

I remember when you were born.

It went so fast, 

it felt as if you knew we were waiting for you, 

you knew we could not wait to see your tiny little beautiful face, with wide open eyes staring at us.

From the moment you saw the light of life I knew you were something special.

I knew You had an unbeatable energy inside you.

I knew You were filled with Love.

I remember your tiny, tender hand clamping on to my little finger.

Already then I could not let go of you.

Whenever you opened your round little eyes, my heart melted,

and there was no place I would rather be than right where I was.

Ellali-Sheli.

You have a heart as soft and sweet as cotton candy.

You are blessed with intelligence and beauty, while

You intrinsically always display wisdom and modesty. 

Your kindness and emotional intelligence is unique,  and not something teachable.

It is a special gift you received, and a special feeling you award those around you.

Your magnetic smile and inner glow draws happiness and positivity from your surroundings,

while You welcome everyone, no matter who, with an open hand and open heart.

You are an amazing friend to those you cherish, and you cherish everyone that needs to be cared for.

You are a role model to your friends, your brother and sisters, and to me.

I want to Thank You for being who you are,

an inspiration for us all and proof that Kindness, Wisdom, and Beauty exist in this world.

I love you Lali.

You are the Best thing that ever happened to your mother and me, 

and the moment you came into our Life, you gave us a new Life.

You are an amazing Girl, and as long as you follow your heart, you will always do right.

You shine a light on everyone you look at,

and give hope to everyone you love.

Be proud of who You are,

and always remain the amazing 'woman' you grew to become.

Ella,

know that I am always here for You,

that I will always care for You,

and that I will always Love You more than anything in this world.

I got blessed with you and there is no better blessing

You are my superpower

My heart is always Yours.

I love you

I love you

I love you

and I always will.

Papi

My Soul is blue,

while the sky is grey.

You are one of four.

You are one of a kind.

My four little eagles learned how to fly.

Over the fields, You left the nest, you left me in the rye.

I took you to the mountains, the castles, to the sea.

We went off-road, hit a bump we didn't see.

You left us damaged, never hitting the brake. 

You left us behind, preferring the rake.

You disappeared one day and never looked back,

breaking my heart, leaving me black.

How many days need to pass,

how many ways, i can not grasp.

You were the sunshine in my heart,

now there's a cloud that sets us apart.

You had a father that loved you, and always will.

But I don't know you no more, 

You left, with a huge gap to fill. 

Everything feels lost and empty.

The mood is damp, the lights are gone.

You keep on flying, and never drop.

Forgot your father, my tears wont stop.

The days have passed, the clouds still high.

I wish you well, sunshine of my heart.

we will not meet, i wont forget.
