I am fortunate to have crossed paths with you
I am for to have settled on a genuine pearl like you
I am fortunate to have met you
I am fortunate to have you in my life
I am fortunate to have a figure like you
The most reliable, the most trustworthy fellow I grew my acquaintance with
Though we are miles away
You still made a way
To show your love and care
On this Special Day, your Natal Day
I want you to know I am fortunate
My verse may be too lengthy
In outlining your worth and value
But all I wish for you is for things to fall in place
You are an inspiration to many including me
The world awaits your star to shine
