If you want to hear what "Las Mañanitas" sounds like, try this:

This may be more than you want to know.. and don't know if your boyfriend is from Mexico.. but in Mexico.. the birthday song they sing is not "Happy Birthday," but "Las Mañanitas". Here's some info I found on the internet, along with the lyrics and a translation.
From the internet:
Las Mañanitas is a traditional Mexican song that is sung on birthdays and other important holidays. It is often sung as an early morning serenade to wake up a loved one. At birthday parties it is sung before the cake is cut.
Las Mañanitas Lyrics:
Estas son las mañanitas, que cantaba el Rey David,
Hoy por ser día de tu santo, te las cantamos a ti,
Despierta, mi bien, despierta, mira que ya amaneció,
Ya los pajarillos cantan, la luna ya se metió.
Que linda está la mañana en que vengo a saludarte,
Venimos todos con gusto y placer a felicitarte,
Ya viene amaneciendo, ya la luz del día nos dio,
Levántate de mañana, mira que ya amaneció.
Translation:
This is the morning song that King David sang
Because today is your saint's day we're singing it for you
Wake up, my dear, wake up, look it is already dawn
The birds are already singing and the moon has set
How lovely is the morning in which I come to greet you
We all came with joy and pleasure to congratulate you
The morning is coming now, the sun is giving us its light
Get up in the morning, look it is already dawn.
feliz feliz en tu dia, (nombre) que dios de bendiga, que reine la paz en su vida, y que cumplas muchos mas
The version I heard in Mexico (I'm sure there are several) goes like this:
En un día feliz,
Nació un/a niño/a,
Que se llama {nombre},
Y que sea feliz.
Sung to the same tune as Happy Birthday (which was original titled "Good Morning to You").
He is from mexico so this helps alot. Thank you so much!
