On this your very special day,
I’m sending you my best
Of wishes for another year,
Filled with true happiness.
—
Life is so swift,
The years fly fast;
We’re growing old,
This life won’t last.
—
Birthdays remind us
Life’s so sweet;
We take for granted
Those we meet.
—
Whenever I first met you,
My dearest, precious one;
You filled my world with warmth,
So radiant like the sun.
—
No other can take your place,
You are so dear to me;
How can I express myself?
A few lines for you to see
—
Cannot express the love
I truly have for you;
Yet I will still attempt
Whatever I can do.
—
To tell you what I feel
On this, your special day;
Yet thoughts, like birds do fly
Away from me today.
—
Yet I’ll attempt to write
Some little word, my dear;
Expressing on this day,
To show you how I care.
—
They say that life gets better
With every passing year;
But this one thing I know,
You’re growing ever dear.
—
To my heart I hold you close,
I’ll never let you go;
I made that promise, dear,
And I still love you so.
—
I ever cherish your life,
You are a gift to me;
It’s very obvious
For all that really see.
—
The happiness we share
I can’t forsake;
Not rain or cloud
Could ever break.
—
A birthday is a precious time
To stop and think of you;
A birthday is a special time
When thoughts come streaming through.
—
A Shakespeare or a Milton,
As you can simply see;
In writing these few lines
I cannot claim to be.
—
But I shall do my best
To send my wishes, dear,
A very happy birthday,
With expressions clear.
—
Three little precious words
That anyone can write;
Three little precious words
I’ll say it with delight.
—
I love you, I love you
On this your birthday;
I love you, I love you
No more can I say.
—
I’ll tell it near,
I’ll say it far,
I’ll make it clear,
You are my star.
—
Birthdays come,
And birthdays go;
But all year long
My love I’ll show.
—
For that’s the best gift
I could ever give,
To prove that my wish
Will truly live.
—
Long after the day
Of mirth is spent;
Long after the flowers
Have lost their scent.
—
My birthday wish
Will outlive them all;
Winter, spring,
Summer and fall.
—
May your days be filled
With everlasting joy,
That no man
Could ever destroy.
—
So as this day
Comes to a quick close,
Please accept
These words I compose.
—
Just meant for you
As you grow old;
Another year
Of life you’ll hold.
—
Think of the love
I have for you,
May it ever grow
To see you through.
—
Here’s wishing your year
Is filled with sweet song,
Love, peace and cheer
All the day long.
—
Happy birthday to you,
Happy birthday to you,
May my love be near
Every day of this year.
—
Happy birthday my dear,
From the depths of my heart;
I love you my dear,
Please accept this, my art.
