One Year Older
One year older
One year wiser
One year smarter
One year cuter
One year older
One year jollier
One year nicer
One year sweeter
All these things
You are going to be
As you turn one
My cute little baby
Happy 1st birthday
Like a Shining Star
Like a shining star
Bright and radiant you are
Like the deep blue skies
Calm and soothing are your eyes.
Like a bird on a tree
You make me feel chirpy.
Like a colorful rainbow
Seeds of joy in my heart you sow
Just like how fish need the oceans, blue
I also cannot live without you.
Happy 1st birthday
It Seems You Were Born Yesterday
It seems you were born yesterday.
How did you turn one so quickly?
It feels so recent when your parents.
Brought you home as a baby
This makes me realize
Time flies fast, and how
Before you grow up too soon
Let me cuddle you right now.
Happy first birthday
Your Untouched Innocence
Your untouched innocence
That lovely blue in your eyes
With my heart, you’ve made
Some very special ties
Your flawless little face
Fingers than tangle with mine
Brings a feel of purity
Which is just so divine
Your unfathomable sounds
Your heart-melting smile
Everything that you do
Makes my life worthwhile
Happy 1st birthday!
One Year Is a Small Part
One year is a small part.
Of your life which has just begun
Which we will celebrate with a party
And have lots of fun.
One year is just a fraction.
Of your life, which I hope will be long
Which we will celebrate with presents
A delicious cake and a birthday song
Happy 1st birthday
Your Big And Cute Eyes
Your big and cute eyes
Your chubby little nose
You charming and sweet smile
Your curly-burly toes
Your small and soft hands
Your itsy-bitsy feet
Give me all the happiness.
And make my life complete.
Happy first birthday!
Although You Are Just One
Although you are just one
You are already so popular.
Although you are a tiny tot
You look so dapper
Although you are an infant
You are full of grace and poise.
Although you are a baby
You are cuter than most other boys.
Although you are little
You are full of promise.
Let me wish you a happy birthday.
With a cute little hug and kiss.
In Just One Year That Has Passed
In just one year that has passed
So much joy we have amassed
In just an year that went by
You won our hearts, cutie pie.
In just one year that has flown
Our fondness for you has grown.
A fantastic year it has been
So much happiness we have seen
All because of you, my dear baby.
You deserve the best birthday party.
Happy first birthday
Most of my friends have sent me tweets.
Clearing my inbox is going to be a feat.
Everyone I know is reaching out.
To tell me how cute you are
And wishing you a happy birthday.
To my adorable superstar
Happy 1st birthday!
Did You Take a Pen To Write
Did you take a pen to write
Your name all over my heart
Did you target my soul?
By becoming a cute little dart
Did you tattoo your name?
All over my spirit
Did you scribble with a pencil?
Over my body bit by bit
You have done something.
To engrave your presence on me.
For I have fallen in love
With the cutest one-year-old baby
Happy first birthday
The Way You Gape At Everyone
The way you gape at everyone
The way you try to make sounds
The way you sleep in you crib
The way you try to bounce around
The way you make every moment
Worthy enough to remember
Cutie pie, we will recall
Your childhood forever
Happy 1st birthday
Cutie pie
Apple of my eye
Without you
My heart would go dry
Sweetie pie
I will not lie
Without you
I would surely die
Happy first birthday
A Year Ago
A year ago
We didn’t know
That you will come
And make our life awesome.
One year changed
Everything drastically
For God gave us
You as our baby
Happy first birthday
If There Is Another Way
If there is another way
To describe your cuteness
I will call it a source
Of all my happiness.
If there are any words
To describe your innocence
I will call it a synonym
Of adorable exuberance.
If there are any means
To describe your allure.
I’d say that your beauty
Is utterly pure.
Happy first birthday!
Being One Means Taking Up
Being one means taking up
Lots of responsibility
You will have to make your parents smile
With all your frivolity
You will have to make your guests laugh
As they pull your cheeks
You will have to hear their cute praises
And the baby lingo in which they speak
I wish you luck in the journey of life
Which you are about to embark
You are truly a bundle of joy
The epitome of life’s spark
Happy first birthday.
Today You Have Officially Become
Today you have officially become.
The cutest one year old
No baby is more adorable than you.
Is what I have been told
Wearing a cute birthday hat
And holding a piece of cake.
As a sweet birthday boy
A pretty picture you will make.
Happy first birthday
You Are So Small And Tiny
You are so small and tiny as such
But the happiness you give is so much
You are so timid and petite
But you have become our heartbeat
You are so tender and coy
But you are a huge bundle of joy
You have turned just a year old
In our lives, you let happiness unfold
Happy first birthday.
You Are The Latest Fad
You are the latest fad.
You are the latest craze.
It is your charm that leaves.
Everyone in a daze
You are the one in vogue.
You are the latest obsession.
Even though my dear
You are only one
Holding Your Tiny Finger
Holding your tiny finger
Tugging your tender cheeks
Pinching your cute nose
Makes me weak in the knees
Hugging you tight
Looking in your big eyes
Can’t believe you are One
Oh my, how time flies.
Happy 1st birthday.
Of Melting My Heart
Of melting my heart
You have the ability
You are well-equipped
To turn me into jelly
Of making my heart soft
You the capacity
And you have the power
To do anything to me
My cutest little one
You will always be
Along with always being
My most adorable bunny
Happy 1st birthday.
Baby’s First Birthday
It’s babys first birthday,
A milestone year.
A moment for smiles,
And a few happy tears.
It’s hard to believe.
How fast time has flown.
You started out so small,
But how quickly you’ve grown.
From rolling to sitting,
To a quick little crawl,
To your first tipsy steps,
You have conquered it all.
You’ve had a big year,
And it’s time to celebrate,
So let’s gather around.
Your birthday cake.
Let’s sing Happy Birthday,
And help you make a wish,
And blow out that candle.
With one big swish!
A Piece Of My Heart
A piece of my heart
Is in your little body
You have taken
My breath away from me
Every bit of my soul
Is stored in your tiny hands
You move it around to cast
A spell-like a magic wand
Every part of my being
Loves you from head to toe
I wish you all the happiness.
Is all that I want you to know
Happy first birthday.
You’re Turning One!
The time has come, and you’re turning one.
Your little life has only just begun.
But it will grow bigger along with you,
And richer with all the amazing things you’ll do!
Your Smile Is Infectious
Your smile is infectious.
Your innocence is contagious.
Your charms are magical.
Every garbled word you say is special.
Your actions are super cute.
They lift my spirits like a parachute.
You touch our lives in a special way.
Wish you a very happy first birthday.
Enjoy Life While It Is
Enjoy life while it is
All about coo, poo, and boo
Enjoy life while everyone.
Fusses over you
Enjoy life while you can
Do whatever you want.
Enjoy life while even.
A single tooth you can flaunt
Enjoy life while you have
Aged by just one year
Today we all wish you.
A happy 1st birthday, my dear
Yesterday You Were a Baby
Yesterday a baby, now today you’re one.
Your toddler years have now begun.

Full of laughter and fun, a real sensation!
And when this day is finally through,
We’ll start planning for the day you turn two!

My little one-year-old
You are simply the best.
Happy 1st birthday
Enjoy Your First Birthday

And become two
Make hay while the sun shines
Enjoy every minute of your party
When you will grow up next year
You might be treated differently
Happy first birthday.
An Amazing Year
It has really been an amazing year,
And all the richer because you are here.

And your wobbly legs are learning to walk.
Your little mouth now holds a toothy grin,
And each time you smile, another heart you win.
So we’re celebrating your special day.
This birthday is the first of many more on the way!
You Make Everyone Giggle
You make everyone giggle.
Because you cutely wriggle
You make everyone smile.
Your antics always beguile.
You make us weak in the knees.
You lighten us up with ease.
You are already so smart.
You rule everyone’s heart.
Happy first birthday!
First Year Of Your Life
If the first year of your life
Was amazing
Wait till you experience
The remaining
It will be nothing short
Of a roller coaster ride
But you will surely do great.
Making our hearts swell with pride
Happy 1st birthday.
