Verse 1

Today the calendar carries your name,

And even the miles can’t quiet the flame.

I picture you smiling, so lovely and sure,

With that brave heart that keeps finding a door.

Pre-Chorus

We trade little stories through the phone,

Your voice makes a faraway place feel home.

Though oceans keep our hands apart,

You’re right here, sister, inside my heart.

Chorus

Innochka, Innulia, happy birthday to you,

So beautiful, determined, and strong through and through.

We live in different countries, but our bond stays bright,

I miss you so much—may your day feel just right.

Innochka, Innulia, let your wishes come true,

I’m counting down the days till I’m there with you.
