This is a special day dedicated for you my king
The Sun shines to glorify your holiness as the Angels sings
The world prepared a feast with songs of delight
On this day, people make peace and cease fights
Your humble servant writes a poem about truth
I pray my words would express my heart's joy bearing fruits
The day you were born was a miracle from heavens
The day you were born was a gift to mankind's existence
We celebrate Christmas because you were born
But I see some people celebrating this with scorn
Forgive me for being busy with life's meaningless desires and doom
I see you waiting for me to come back home
You wait for me to finish work so we can blow the candles on your cake
Waiting for me to sing happy birthday song on Christmas Day
Forgive me if I'm too busy buying presents for people I don't even know
While you're waiting for me to come back home
I forgot about your birthday wish my king
That you only want to be with me and sing
No feast needed, no extravagant preparation
All you wanted is my undivided attention
I'm not worthy my lord to offer anything on this day
But you make all things new and worthy so I come to you and pray
"Merry Christmas" as the world often greet and say
But I say "Thank you God for being born today!"
The day Father sent you to us to be born and live
He also knew you will die and suffer and that makes me cringe
Your love surpasses all understanding that my little mind won't be able to grasp
Being born to die so I can live is the greatest gift I could ever ask
Thank you for being born today my Lord!
I'll be here at home with my family writing poems of love, faith and accord
I promise I'll spend this day with you my king
Christmas is for you Jesus so let's be merry and sing!
