birthday song
Annual cake serenade
A birthday song is a song sung to celebrate someone's birthday, almost always "Happy Birthday to You," performed as a group while the honoree sits before a cake with lit candles.
The ritual typically ends with the birthday person making a wish and blowing out the candles.
We gathered around the table to sing the birthday song.
