My Birthday Wish

My birthday wish is not a wish
For pearls or pets or pies
Or fancy rings or all the things
That only money buys

My birthday wish is not for toys
I've got the toys I need
A family and a great big tree
That's grown from just a seed

Books to read are all around
I needn't wish for more
Pretty shells already found
They're all around the shore

My birthday wish is not a wish
For golden fish in bowls
Delicious treats of jams or sweets
I have much higher goals

Lovely clothes, a silky rose
And toes enough have I
Stars to count, flying around
Are shining in the sky

My birthday wish is not for me
That wouldn't be quite right
I have so much, nice things and such
My birthday pure delight

And so my wish is for the ones
Who've been my friends so true
I thank you all and wish you all
A happy birthday too

For being here and being dear
Happy birthday to you
Happy birthday
