When you were born,
In me, million new hopes born!
All stars in the sky
Came down to twinkle in my eyes;
Every dropp of my blood
Joined my happiness in a flood!
Took much care about you, my son,
To let you care free and happy!
In you I see a friend, companion, guide.
Undeterred, determined and balancing
you have grown up into
A gentle, wise, calm, and sincere man!
Today I recall every moment
We spent together with joy
And Wish you Very Happy Birthday
That paves wayn for success,
Blessing you a rich togetherly family life!

I would like to translate this poem
the poems are written in a v lively language, like a dramatic monologue...the presence of the 2nd person YOU is strongly felt as a character...the poem has a timeless quality, universal, as it can be the voice of any father, who is not a poet but feels the same...
