Desirous of words to speak a word,
Of a happy birthday piercing through your heart like a sword
Not to kill
Much more to heal
Words that lie with you, as thy head on pillow lay
Reminding you that every new day is a birthday
Indeed as day dawns you are born again
As the world gathers to shout your acclaim
Alas, they too have left you in oblivion
Fear not, let not your bones shiver
Look deep down into your quiver
Then you will see that every new day is a birthday
Open your eyes then truly you’ll see, my birthday wish isn’t belated
For every new day we are born and our birthdays can not be dated.
Enjoy life
Avoid strife
Happy birthday (past, present and future)
