Happy birthday to me
by Jinny
(India)
Can't sleep in the summer heat
Trying to get some sleep
My little angel slept already
My husband awake for me
To wish me at midnight
I slept though
I was called at 12
To cut the cake and for prayer
This tradition happened in our family
Yeah it was Happy Birthday to me
My husband bought some gifts
And hid them in my shelf
I found them all there
And asked him what's all that
In embarrassment he closed my eyes
I saw what I needed to see
When at midnight he presented those
I pretended I had never seen it
I said wow thank you
And said to myself Happy birthday to me
