If we were children still,
Our name would be Gabloo, Babloo,
Laddoos would be our fill,
And the world would sing, "Happy Birthday to you!"
Happy Birthday to you!
If we were children still,
Our name would be Gabloo, Babloo,
Laddoos would be our fill,
And the world would sing, "Happy Birthday to you!"
Happy Birthday to you!

A doll, a car, a train, they'd bring,
Or a spinning top, a whirring thing,
A wind-up pony, prancing free,
And the world would sing, "Happy Birthday to you!"
Happy Birthday to you!

Oh, how sweet, that innocent phase,
No job to fret, no bread to graze,
Tiny hands, commanding might,
With Daddy and Mommy, serving right,
Chocolates, biscuits, candies sweet, and milk we'd slurp,
And the world would sing, "Happy Birthday to you!"
Happy Birthday to you!

Whims and tantrums, we would weave,
In a moment laugh, in a moment grieve,
Making a mess, creating a fuss,
Playing hide-and-seek, a playful tryst,
Making noise, wreaking havoc, creating a ruckus,
And sometimes we would stubbornly persist like a stubborn burro,
And the world would sing, "Happy Birthday to you!"
Happy Birthday to you!
If we were children still,
Our name would be Gabloo, Babloo,
Laddoos would be our fill,
And the world would sing, "Happy Birthday to you!"
Happy Birthday to you!

But now, alas, the childhood's flown,
With Mother's quarrel, Father's groan, wife's discord known,
We are like oxen in the mill, or a donkey in the wash,
Bearing blows from the world, in a constant thrash,
If we were children, we wouldn't complain with a squeak and a groan,
And the world would sing, "Happy Birthday to you!"
Happy Birthday to you!
If we were children still,
Our name would be Gabloo, Babloo,
Laddoos would be our fill,
And the world would sing, "Happy Birthday to you!"
Happy Birthday to you!
