Since it is my birthday today, I figured it was a good day to find out how you say "Happy birthday" in all your various languages. In Norwegian you say:
"Gratulerer med dagen" (Congratulations with the day)
What is it in your target languages or your native language?

First of all - Happy Birthday Solfrid.
Secondly, in Italian I believe it is 'buon compleanno', but I guess you know this since
you speak Italian :)

Happy Birthday Solfrid Cristin.
In Hebrew:
יום הולדת שמח (yom huldet sameach)
and of course there's a song:

Another thing that's said sometimes is:
עד מאה ועשרים because Moses lived to 120. Here's another clip from my favorite Cheesy movie from the 1970s:
