Venkat Turns Fifty

[Verse 1]
Venkat, you rise before the sun
You carry the load and still get it done
You hold the keys to every room
And bring the whole house to life and bloom

Backbone of the family, steady and true
When the day gets heavy, they lean on you
You work with heart, you give your all
And still make time when the loved ones call

[Pre-Chorus]
Today the tables turn
Today it’s your night
All of that love you give
Comes back shining bright

[Chorus]
Happy birthday, Venkat
Fifty years of fire
Happy birthday, Venkat
You take us higher
Fifty candles, one strong name
Still you dance, still you play
Happy birthday, Venkat
Let the whole room say

[Verse 2]
You love the trips, the open road
New places, new faces, new stories told
Then you hit the floor with a party grin
And somehow make everybody jump in

You make the small moments feel so grand
With a laugh, with a hug, with a helping hand
So here’s to the man who gave us more
Than we could ever ask for or ignore

[Pre-Chorus]
Today the tables turn
Today it’s your night
All of that love you give
Comes back shining bright

[Chorus]
Happy birthday, Venkat
Fifty years of fire
Happy birthday, Venkat
You take us higher
Fifty candles, one strong name
Still you dance, still you play
Happy birthday, Venkat
Let the whole room say

[Bridge]
May every road keep opening wide
May joy keep walking by your side
May every wish you’ve made come true
This whole big world looks good on you

[Final Chorus]
Happy birthday, Venkat
Fifty years of fire
Happy birthday, Venkat
You take us higher
Fifty candles, one strong name
Still you dance, still you play
Happy birthday, Venkat
Let the whole room say
Happy birthday, Venkat
This is your golden day
