Many Happy Returns
Joys around your birthday centred,
With their merriest welcome greet you;
And the year, that you have entered
Day by day those joys repeat you.
[Description: A photo of a young child, the British flag (Union Jack) and a lion, the Australian flag (blue ensign) and a kangaroo (with a rising sun above and between the two flags), along with a poem.]
