Hoch soll er leben (Long may he prosper) for clarinet choir (E flat, 3 x B flat, Alto, Bass and Contrabass)
 
Arrangement for E flat, 3 x B flat, Alto, Bass and Contrabass clarinets of the German folksong (and birthday song) "Hoch soll er leben" (Long may he prosper),
which is used on birthdays and other congratulatory occasions.
I have provided a series of three verses, each a tone higher than the previous and with more semiquaver movements as the excitement grows.
 
One version of the German text:
Hoch soll er leben, Hoch soll er leben, Dreimal hoch
Wie schön, dass Du geboren bist, wir hätten Dich sonst sehr vermisst.
 
Possible English singing translation:
 
Long may he prosper, Long may he prosper, Sing three times!
We are so glad that you were born, otherwise we'd be forlorn
