Early morning, August four   Cecilia wish that she gets more   Than the year before   When she got nothing at all      Silently she starts to pray   Wishing there will be a day   When she is not alone   That is why I sing      Happy Birthday, dear Cecilia   Happy Birthday to my one and only baby   Hip, hip, hip hurray      Now she dresses up in white   Dyes her hair to make it bright   Like the movie stars   Whose life seems like a dream      Happy Birthday dear Cecilia   Happy Birthday to my baby baby   Happy birthday dear Cecilia   You’re my one and only baby   Hip, hip, hip hurray      In the evening, August four   Cecilia waits behind the door   She is still alone   With no one here to sing   Happy Birthday dear Cecilia   Happy Birthday to my baby, baby   Happy birthday dear Cecilia   You’re my one and only baby   You are never lonely   Happy Birthday, dear Cecilia   Happy Birthday to my one and only baby   Hip, hip, hip hurray
