Happy birthday, my love!
Hope you have a wonderful day,
You have become your own person,
Found your paths and lessons,
Enjoying to cherish solitude and company,
And learning to challenge practices and policy.
You are a blessing beyond measure,
My most cherished treasure,
May your life be a mix of purpose and pleasure,
Days of hard work and leisure,
As you go along your chosen way,
May grace and humility always stay,
Acquire new skills to practice and play.
And think deeply before you sway.
Happy happy birthday!!
Loved you yesterday,
Love you more today
And will love you everyday!
