“Happy birthday!”:
- shēng rì kuài lè!（生日快乐！）
“Happy birthday to you!”:
- zhù nǐ shēng rì kuài lè!（祝你生日快乐！）
Sometimes people make fun of close friends by replacing the first character, zhù (祝, wish), with zhū (猪, pig), so the sentence becomes:
“Happy birthday to you, pig!”:
- zhū nǐ shēng rì kuài lè!（猪你生日快乐！）
Happy birthday to myself
