I'm late because I waited for Mr. Valoczy's birthday, of course. :)
Lacking all words that have something to do with good, happy, birth or even
year,
and since the Mamqosians, not knowing exact calendar, only have
birth-approximately-anniversaries,
I think I must "impor... impro... make something up" (quoting a friend), but
a birthday simply can't go uncelebrated. :)
Thus, in Mamqosian:
D'keketayr tauw han!
/d?kekeStayr tauw han/
May this day give you(plural) delight!
Or, I might as well be polite:
D'kekeir tauw han hirey!
D'kekeir hirey - may it make you smile. :)

P.S. Should , the sh-letter be considered a tricky code, or is it readable?
