[MC]
“Yo, yo, gather round, N9 inna di house tonight!
From di one an’ only Natty Dread, roots tuff an’ dreadlocks tight!
We nah deal wid trouble—we mek di riddim shake!
So wave yuh lighters high, mi seh, IT’S TIME FI RHYME AN’ WAKE!
Big up all di lovers, big up all di crew…
Nuh mek mi ask twice—BRING THE NOISE FI NATTY DREAD IN N9… THAT’S YOU!”

[Chorus]
Mi big up yuh heart, yuh light up di yard,
HBD mi star!
Mi big up yuh heart, yuh light up di yard,
Earthstrong fi yuh, princess!
Yuh grow like di tree, but yuh still run to me,
HBD mi star!
Yuh shine like di sun, but yuh cool like sea breeze,
Earthstrong fi yuh, princess!

[Verse 1]
From di day yuh crawl, to di woman stand tall,
Mi cyaan believe mi eye!
Yuh tek di world head-pon, like a lion, no fear—
But mi still see di baby inside.
Through laughter an’ tears, all dese twenty-three years,
Yuh mek mi heart swell wid pride,
Mi spirit tek yuh from di start, yes mi know,
Yuh destiny bright, jus’ abide.

[Chorus]

[Verse 2]
Dem say “Yuh too facety!” but mi love yuh spice,
Yuh fire nah quench inna rain.
Yuh mind sharp like machete, cut through any problem,
An’ yuh heart soft as sugarcane.
No ramp wid di struggles, life’s a juggle,
But mi know yuh ago reign—
Mi haffi mek yuh know, through di highs an’ di lows,
Mi love stick like yuh name inna frame.

[Bridge]
Cake full a candles, but yuh young, full a angles,
Mi memory deh pon replay—
Di nights we stay up, talk ‘bout dreams an’ “A who dat?”,
Yuh roots run deep, mi nuh stray.
Dis house hold yuh laughter, tomorrow hold yuh chapter,
But today? We shout “Hooray!”
One love, one nest, pon yuh day, mi confess:
Mi proud fi watch yuh fly away.

[Chorus]

[Outro]
Nuh bodda fret, life’s a bet—but yuh already win!
Blow di candles, mek a wish, mi princess grin.
HBD fi di queen weh mi house hold within…
Mi love yuh more dan di day yuh begin.

ENGLISH TRANSLATION:

Chorus:
I celebrate your heart, you light up the yard,
Happy Birthday, my star!
I celebrate your heart, you light up the yard,
Blessings for your birthday, princess!
You’ve grown like a tree, but you still run to me,
Happy Birthday, my star!
You shine like the sun, but you’re cool as the sea breeze,
My love’s with you, princess!

Verse 1:
From the day you crawled, to the woman standing tall,
I can’t believe my eyes!
You tackle the world head-on, fearless as a lion—
But I still see the baby inside.
Through laughter and tears, all these twenty-three years,
You’ve made my heart swell with pride,
My soul knew you’d be great from the start, yes I knew,
Your destiny’s bright—just keep climbing high.

Verse 2:
They say, “You’re too bold!” but I love your spice,
Your fire won’t drown in the rain.
Your mind’s sharp as a blade, slicing through problems,
And your heart’s sweet as sugarcane.
Don’t wrestle with struggles—life’s a wild juggle—
But I know you’ll rise and reign.
I’ve got to let you know, through highs and through lows,
My love sticks like your name in a frame.

Bridge:
Cake full of candles, but you’re young, full of spark,
My memories hit replay—
Those nights we stayed up, talking dreams and “Who’s that?”,
Your roots run deep; I won’t stray.
This house holds your laughter, tomorrow holds your story,
But today? We shout “Hooray!”
One love, one home, on your day, I confess:
I’m proud to watch you fly away.

Outro:
Don’t stress—life’s a gamble, but you’ve already won!
Blow the candles, make a wish, my princess, smile on.
Happy Birthday to the queen this house built its throne…
I love you more than [beat drop] the day you’d begun.

HBD Mi Star
