New Year Song
क्षणं प्रतिक्षणं यन्नवं नवं ।
तच्च सुन्दरं सच्च तच्छिवं ॥
वर्ष-नूतनं ते शुभं मुदं ।
उत्तरोत्तरं भवतु सिद्धिदं ॥
kṣaṇaṁ pratikṣaṇaṁ yannavaṁ navaṁ
tacca sundaraṁ sacca tacchivam
varṣa-nūtanaṁ te śubhaṁ mudam
uttarottaraṁ bhavatu siddhidam
That which is ever new and fresh, that alone is Good, Real and Beautiful. May this New Year bring you greater goodness, happiness and success.
Birthday Song
जन्म-दिनमिदं अयि प्रिय सखे ।
शन्तनोतु ते सर्वदा मुदं ॥
प्रार्थयामहे भव शतायुषी ।
ईश्वरः सदा त्वां च रक्षतु ॥
पुण्यकर्मणा कीर्तिमर्जय ।
जीवनं तव भवतु सार्थकम् ॥
janma-dinam-idaṁ ayi priya sakhe |
śantanotu te sarvadā mudam ||
prārthayāmahe bhava śatāyuṣi |
īśvaraḥ sadā tvāṁ ca rakṣatu ||
puṇya karmaṇā kīrtimarjaya |
jīvanaṁ tava bhavatu sārthakam ||
O dear friend! May this birthday bring you Auspiciousness and joy forever. Indeed we all pray for your long life. May the Lord always protect you. By noble deeds, may you attain fame and may your life be fulfilled.
