Dear all the Luna Lovegoods
Hello! I'm one too
I'm sometimes called looney
And it hurts, that's true
But darling, stand up straight, keep your head up, be proud! 
For you are smart but believe the impossible
And that's a hard truth to be found 

Your minds are filled with wonder
And your hearts are filled with love
And though mocked and made fun of
You will stand above
With the moon and the stars
And someday, with our minds, the world will be ours
To seek and discover all that lies
Although not everyone will see it with our eyes 

Your intelligence is charming
And your quirks are quite daring
But, to be honest, some wish for a heart that's THAT caring
So, go on, keep living in that wonderful mind forget what those people say, you won't fall behind 

The world was made for people who love logic and order
And though we sometimes like that too
We'd much rather border between
Impossible and possibly plausible
The moon is our best friend, and knowledge is what we look for
So put on your polka-dot shoes and step through that front door 

Yes, you'll see tragedy and your kind heart will break
Because the world isn't always loving
It's a downright scary place
But if you need some encouragement, look no further than your name
For you are loving, and you are good
And "looney", though some think it should, 
Is not always a bad thing 

So go on, let your hearts and mind sing
About things that you know to be true and believe
And if you're asking me what I believe to be true? 
Dear all the Luna Lovegoods,
I believe in YOU...
