My friend Jorge Ramírez turns 38 today. ¡Feliz cumple, amigo!

Lyrics:

El gran día is finally here.
What a special time of year.
Everybody can celebrate
Now that you are 38.

Pero en dos años, tendrás cuarenta;
You’ll be half way to ochenta.
There’s no other way of putting it;
Getting old makes you feel like caca.

Cumpleaños feliz, te deseamos a ti.
Felicidades, Jorgito, aunque seas más viejito.

When you were younger, you weren’t so lento,
But that was another tiempo.
Your joints are feeling sore, your muscles start to ache,
A little more now that you’re 38.

I am sorry if this makes you feel sad,
But you can’t escape tu edad.
You’re getting older every day.
What else is there for me to say?

Cumpleaños feliz, te deseamos a ti.
Felicidades, Jorgito, que no te pongas más gordito.

Cumpleaños feliz, te deseamos a ti.
Jorge Ramírez de Santiago, Chile.

Cumpleaños feliz, te deseamos a ti.
Felicidades, Jorge; Happy Birthday to you.
