El Regalo Mejor, better known as Celebro tu cumpleaños, is the traditional Dominican birthday song. Written in 1959, it is the local equivalent of Happy Birthday. It is rarely sung in its full original version today; people typically sing a shortened remix or jokingly repeat the first few lines. (The song is a cultural staple at Dominican parties, usually sung with enthusiastic, rhythmic clapping).
Celebro tu cumpleaños as soon as I saw the sun rise, and on this glorious day, I ask the Lord for your joy, because I have considered it the best gift. Take this hug I give you with great sincerity: take my hug, I am your friend, and much happiness.
