Birthday Wishes for Girlfriend

Happy birthday to the girl who turned my ordinary days into the ones I look forward to. Whatever you wish for tonight, I hope I am there when it comes true.

You are the first person I want to tell everything to, good or bad. Happy birthday, my love — thank you for being my favourite conversation.

Of all the days in the year, this is my favourite, because it is the day the world got you. Happy birthday.

I hope this year is as kind to you as you are to everyone around you. Happy birthday to the softest heart I know.

Every year I think I cannot love you more, and every year you prove me wrong. Happy birthday, beautiful.

Thank you for laughing at my worst jokes, holding my hand in crowds and choosing me anyway. Happy birthday to my favourite person.

Happy birthday to my favourite person to share food with — which, as you know, is the highest honour I give.

Another year older and still pretending you do not check if I have liked your post. Happy birthday, I have.

Before you, I did not know someone could feel like home and an adventure at the same time. Happy birthday to both of you.

I know this year asked a lot of you. You carried it with more grace than you give yourself credit for. Happy birthday — I am so proud of you.

If I could give you one thing today, it would be the chance to see yourself the way I see you. Happy birthday, my love.

Happy birthday from the other side of the video call. Next year I am bringing the cake in person.

Distance is just the time between our last hug and the next one. Happy birthday — I am counting the days.

Janamdin mubarak ho, meri jaan. Tumhari muskaan meri sabse pyaari aadat hai.

जन्मदिन की ढेर सारी शुभकामनाएँ, मेरी जान. तुम हो तो हर दिन ख़ास है.

Happy birthday, meri cutie. Bas tum aise hi hasti raho, baaki sab hum sambhal lenge.

तुम्हारे जन्मदिन पर बस यही दुआ है कि तुम्हारी हर ख़्वाहिश पूरी हो — और उनमें से एक हम हों.

Saal badalte rahenge, tum meri favourite rahogi. Happy birthday, jaan.

Happy birthday, my love. I tried to write something clever and kept coming back to small things: the way you hum when you cook, the way you hold my arm when we cross the road, the way you text "reached?" every single time. None of them are big, and all of them are why I love you. I hope this year gives you rest when you need it, courage when you are scared and many more reasons to laugh. I will be right here for all of it.

Happy birthday. I wish I could be there to watch you blow out the candles, pretend you are not tearing up at the cards and steal the first bite of cake. I cannot this year, so here is a promise instead: next birthday, I am there. Until then, I hope today is loud with people who love you, and quiet enough tonight for one long call with me.
