To the year arriving, a salute,
To the year departing, a gentle root.
Of the New Year's dawn, a promise bright,
The first toast poured, in your soul's light.
Happy New Year.

Happy, happy, happy, happy New Year,
Of the New Year's dawn, the first tear,
For you, only for you,
Happy New Year.
Happy, happy, happy, happy New Year.

Faces masked, unknown to all,
Who recognizes whom, as shadows fall?
Faces masked, unknown to all,
Who recognizes whom, as shadows call?
What dwells within, beyond recall?
Today, from eyes, the stories start,
The tongue's work, we enthrall.
For you, Happy New Year,
Of the New Year's dawn, the first tear, for you.

Oh, see the elders, how they fare,
Behold the years, the aging stare!
In revelry, all spirits gleam,
Friends both new, and from a childhood dream.
In revelry, all spirits gleam,
Friends both new, and from a childhood dream.
Poets, lovers, all ignite,
The city's fallen, gathered here,
All bearing the same flame.
For you, Happy New Year,
Of the New Year's dawn, the first tear, for you.

Yes, where was I in telling,
As the Eden bird's verse began,
Of the parrots and the mynah's lore?
Let us begin. Oh yes...
The mynah spoke, to the parrot's heart,
This night, forever, will impart.
The mynah spoke, to the parrot's heart,
This night, forever, will impart.
Of the New Year's dawn, the stories start,
Dawn arrives, the birds take wing,
Awake, dear Parrot-kin from your dreams.
For you, Happy New Year,
Of the New Year's dawn, the first tear, for you.
Of the New Year's dawn, the first tear, for you.
Happy, happy, happy, happy New Year.
Happy New Year.
