These were the main variations that came to my mind. Out of sheer curiosity I want to know your age, sex, and location. There’s another version I heard as a teen or young college age that I do not recall exactly how it went. But I’d never heard it before. I also have a friend who’s parents alternated in Spanish and English the two verses.

You have NEVER heard the Stevie Wonder Happy Birthday song, which is a tribute to MLK? |
Not PP, and I’m sure I’ve heard the song before, but if the question is about which version you sing at someone’s birthday party…I can’t recall anyone ever singing that version. |
