Herzlichen Glückwunsch English translation
von Volker Rosin

For everyone who has a birthday this year
We are now singing our birthday song

A few years ago, as if ordered
A baby came into the world
Without teeth, without shoes
Hard to believe, that was you

You cried and you laughed
Filled many diapers
Today you don’t do that anymore
Congratulations

Congratulations
Congratulations
You are the birthday child
Congratulations

Congratulations
Congratulations
You are the birthday child
Congratulations


Your friends are here
And we congratulate you
Because it’s your birthday today
Congratulations

And on this beautiful day
Everyone who likes you says
You are great just the way you are
Congratulations

Congratulations
Congratulations
You are the birthday child
Congratulations

Congratulations
Congratulations
You are the birthday child
Congratulations

And we wish you from luck
Today the biggest piece
But the biggest wish remains
Health and happiness


La-la-lalala, la-la-lalala
Lalalala-lalala, lala-lalala
La-la-lalala, la-la-lalala
Lalalala-lalala, lala-lalala

Congratulations
Congratulations
You are the birthday child
Congratulations

Congratulations
Congratulations
You are the birthday child
Congratulations
