There's this guy we met in a coffee shop

We talked and laughed and did not stop

We spoke of Norway and his lovely farm

He was kind and smart and filled with charm

You never know over a cup of brew

That you can learn so much you never knew

You think you're there for a cup of "Joe"

But you leave the place more in the know

So rumor has it that Idar is turning the big Nine-0

He can kick up his heels and go man go

So happy birthday to a wonderful guy!

May your blessings continue like stars in the sky!
