As sweet as honey his impish grin, A pair of dimples, an upturned chin.

A peacock feather on his crown Two gold earrings dangle down.

Those tinkling bangles on his arms Who can resist his baby charms?

He plays a flute with elegant grace As soft black curls frame his face.

His twinkling eyes are fresh as dew His manner bold and skin so blue. His milk teeth tinkle with laughter.

He's always ready for more butter. This cowherd prince a baby still Will protect the good and dispel evil.
