I think it depends if you are going to be singing to native Turks or not. I did this version for my Granddaughters first birthday, but the only people that spoke Turk'ce were her parents.

Iyi ki dog’dun sana

Iyi ki dog’dun sana

(name)’nin Iyi dog’dum

Mutlu Yillar (name)’ya

Madturk,

I asked the same question on the translation last month and got the following suggestion. However the source did not claim to be Turkish so I can't guarantee that it represents what Turkish people would sing. I personally prefer the version I sent in the previous post.

iyi ki doğdun "persons name"
iyi ki doğdun "persons name"
iyi ki doğdun, iyi ki doğdun
mutlu yıllar sana

Kendine iyi bak.

SO wich one is right??? because if this was correct why would we be saying the "persons name" in the first 2 sentences?

And really, how many Turkish people celebrate birthdays?
Almost non of my close friends care about birthdays. So that is not a common "song"
