Dear Nithya Wish you a very very happy birthday!! I am sure this birthday will be that much more special Given the momentous event that is going to happen An event that will change your life for the better Well, I've known you since I was a kid Though we haven't met frequently Nor have we spoken a lot But I've always been fond of you You are a very nice person Very warm, friendly and jovial by nature You bring a lot of cheer To everyone around you Not a single moment with you Can ever be called "boring" You are so witty That the Sorting Hat will scream "Ravenclaw!!" The moment it touches your head Also, you are very sensitive And care deeply about your family, cousins and friends We've had some great times Whether it be India, US or Ireland Coming to Ireland, you were an excellent tour guide The incredible views of the Pacific Ocean from the Cliffs of Moher Continue to give me goosebumps to this day And Glendalough Upper Lake was nothing less than Paradise on Earth!! Finally, I shall never forget the moment When we had the finest Irish beer, at Temple Bar Then, as far as US was concerned The cruise on Lake Michigan was absolutely unforgettable As were the views from Hancock Tower Not to mention, the picnic we had at the Chicago Bean!! Anyway, coming back to you I hope you have a day to remember Wish you loads of love, happiness and merriment And may the Lord bless you!!
