Caress, caress, and very close to granny,
Give a pretty lovely rose to granny,
Sweet are flowers, sweeter are the buds,
Fly round her like the tweeting birds,
She likes butterflies dancing on her face,
Caress, caress and enjoy pink glace.
Darkness of aging needs twinkles and shines,
We know your taste and your favorite dines,
With all the stars Oh Moon! Come tonight,
Cress, caress, we shall enjoy your sight,
We shall sing and dance and dine with delight,
You can make our home so lovely and bright.
Your granny is famous for her lovely dishes,
Have blessings sweethearts and hearty wishes,
You have forgotten it so let me remind,
How painful is old age how cruel and unkind!
It's birthday of your granny she needs gift of love,
Run like a tiger or you may fly like a dove,
But you must come tonight otherwise old clay!
She will not celebrate her lonely birthday! !
