happa bierthday to you ,,,

I'm always annoyed when some German drunkards are singing this song in English to induce me to stand them a round. I'm a German, not so proud of it (I'm just born there without my doing), but it is my beloved native language. So I prefer it in German:

Zum Geburtstag viel Glueck,
Zum Geburtstag viel Glueck,
Viel Glueck zum Geburtstag,
Zum Geburtstag viel Glueck.

The 3rd line can also be varied with the praised one's name: Viel Glueck, lieber Wilfried (m)
or : Viel Glueck, liebe Susanne (f)


Cheers W.
