I hope that you remain

Fit and fighting beyond fifty

Enjoy and take it lightly

A little bit grumpy

You have become irritable

All this is meant to be

You are not young anymore

This year you have turned fifty

Happy fiftieth birthday

To becoming a senior citizen

Such vintage charm and poise

Cheers to you turning fifty

Happy birthday

If I had to make list of qualities

That make you a wonderful person

I would be able to do it with ease

There are not just fifty things

But a hundred about you

That make you so amazing

Warm and loving too

On your fiftieth birthday I raise

A toast to your life’s journey

Which has been until now

Most admirable and worthy

Happy 50th birthday

You can also be annoyed and irritable

Or you can start inspiring others

About what you want to be at fifty

Do you want to set an inspirational example

Or just be old and grumpy

Happy 50th birthday

To show everyone what you’ve got

After reaching such an age

Don’t you lose the plot

Gather all your energy

Think about what you can do
