It is a merry time, we
Don our festive clothes.
Joyfully we gather to
Sing a happy birthday song to you.
You have been a steady rock
On which people had leaned.
Today you’re to relax and
Let the fun begin.
So kick off your shoes and
Sit back on a chair.
Close your eyes if you dare,
But stay alert for a new fanfare.
Nine decades have gone by –
Your life enriched – love or
travail.
As you listen to the music, let
It gently take you back in time.
Time goes fast and time goes slow –
Time twirls around in a beautiful snow –
Time brings storms that after passing through,
Leaves rainbows of different hues.
Time changes and time is the same –
Time is lovely as you gaze at her name –
Time is harsh when life is rough, but
Time always brings you love, hope, and dreams.
Time lets the children learn and grow –
Time mellows the hardships you go through –
Time multiplies the blessings you receive –
Time brings us together now and again.
So make sure you wear a big smile, for
Everyone is feeling fine, and
Everything is going to be alright,
The moment though will pass will stay a while.
Enjoy the tasty feast,
You deserve a lovely treat.
Far and near we come to wish you,
A happiest ninetieth birthday there has ever been.
