At last your birthday has finally arrived,
and we want to help you celebrate.
So bring out the hats and confetti too,
add some ice cream and chocolate cake.
Turn on the music and turn down the lights,
and light the candles as you make your wish.
Remember the past year and all you have learned,
and hopes the next year will bring no anguish.
May good health and prosperity be yours to grasp,
and all you may dream bring you sunshine.
May butterflies and flowers brighten your days,
and lots of happy thoughts fill your mind.
Happy Birthday to you!
