Today you're 23, that's a beautiful age
And you're still looking good

Today we celebrate and this is a song to get you in the mood.

Refrain

Happy birthday to you dear Marcel
Celebrate in your own way!

Happy birthday to you,
and party on for the rest of the day.
Happy birthday to you!
This day is all about you.
Happy birthday to you.
and may all of your wishes come true.

You are my best friend and I'm proud of
you, for you are special to me.
You brightened up my life and with this song,
I return the favour to thee.

Refrain

You make the sun shine and
you can stop the rain,
With just a little touch.
But most of all: you are who you are,
That's why I love you so much.

Refrain
