(Verse 1)
The sun came up on July 17th,
A special day, a happy scene!
For three lovely stars who fill my life,
My amazing kids and my darling husband!
Wait—let me get this right, you see,
It’s for the ones who mean the world to me!
(Chorus)
So sing it out for Dauda, my lovely husband true!
And for my handsome boy, Mahfooz, I'm so proud of you!
And for my beautiful princess, my wonderful Nayla!
This day belongs to you, all three, Hip Hip Hooray-la!
(Verse 2)
Three candles on a cake so big,
For my handsome boy, my lovely hubby,
And my princess pretty as can be,
You share a date, a destiny!
We're raising a cheer, we're making a toast,
For the three of you we love the most!
(Chorus)
So up Dauda, up Mahfooz, up Nayla today!
We're sending all our love to you in the happiest way!
Live long and live large, that's what we say!
Thank you for making my every single day!
(Outro)
Yes, thank you for making my day!
Happy Birthday to you!
Happy Birthday to you!
Happy Birthday dear Dauda, Mahfooz, and Nayla...
Happy Birthday to you!
