The Story of Happy Birthday Song
The melody of the
song "Happy Birthday to You"
comes from a song called "Good
Morning to All", which was written and compiled
by the Hill sisters,
Patty and Mildred
J. Hill, in 1893.
They are citizens of the United States. Patty was a
kindergarten principal in Louisville, Kentucky.
Mildred was a pianist
and composer. But
many people believe that the Hill sisters most
likely copied the
tune and lyrical
idea from other popular
and substantially Similar Nineteenth-century
songs that predated
theirs, Including Horace Waters' "Happy
Greetings to All", "Good Night to You All" also from
1858, "A Happy
New Year to All"
from 1875, and
"A Happy Greeting
to All", published 1885.
The combination of melody and lyrics in "Happy Birthday to You", first Appeared in print in 1912, and there could have been even earlier.
