Today the world slows down a little
Just to let your day begin
Twenty-six pages of a story
With so much more left to write within
And if time keeps running faster
May it always find you smiling
Because every dream you carry
Is still unfolding, still alive
[Verse 1]
You made it all the way to here
Through sleepless nights and endless dreams
Through every weight you had to carry
Through every choice nobody sees
How many times they never knew
What lived behind your eyes
But you kept moving forward
Even when it hurt inside
[Pre-Chorus]
And today I don't want to talk about the past
I want to talk about what's still ahead
All the dreams that are waiting for you
All the things you haven't become yet
[Chorus]
Twenty-six…
May a brand-new sky open up for you
May every star find its own way
To light the road you're walking through
Twenty-six…
May life be gentle with your heart
May music never leave your days
And may you always know your path
And if the world ever feels too heavy
Remember everything you've overcome
There are still so many chapters waiting
And your best one may have yet to come
[Verse 2]
May you never lose that little child
Still living somewhere deep inside
The one who dreamed without being afraid
Before the world taught you to hide
May applause never be the reason
But only part of where you've been
May you find peace within the silence
When the night grows tired and dim
May there be people who are honest
Who know how to stay without asking why
Who see beyond the lights around you
And care for the heart behind your eyes
[Pre-Chorus]
And today, among so many voices
There's one thing I want you to hear
I'm not asking you for anything
I'm simply wishing you a beautiful year
[Chorus]
Twenty-six…
May a brand-new sky open up for you
May every star find its own way
To light the road you're walking through
Twenty-six…
May life be gentle with your heart
May music never leave your days
And may you always know your path
[Bridge]
If tomorrow brings you storms
May you find the strength to cross
If fear comes knocking at your door
May hope be there to answer first
And when you look back someday
May you be proud of who you've become
Not only for what you accomplished
But for the heart you've kept along the way
[Final Chorus]
Twenty-six…
Today I celebrate your existence
Not only the artist the world knows
But the person behind the lights
The heart nobody always sees
Twenty-six…
May this only be the beginning
Of a life even more beautiful
Filled with dreams, love and new beginnings
And wherever life may take you
Never forget this one simple thing:
There are people who sincerely wish
For you to be happy.
[Outro]
Happy twenty-six…
May your story keep being written
With courage, music and truth.
And may the next chapter
Be even more beautiful than the last.
