Do You Remember Your Birthday? (今日は私の誕生日♪)
Today, 14th August, is my birthday. I don’t like the date of my birthday because I don’t remember a special birthday party since I was a little kid. My friends went back to family home due to Obon and I could not meet my friends during the summer vacation. I always envied friends’ birthday party.
What I remember about my birthday party is that, when I went to grandma’s home, she picked up a hornets’ nest and gave me their larvae for nutrition. Damn! Who can eat? I thought it at that time. However, bring back that time, she’d cared about me. I cannot say my thanks to her because she is in heaven now. Sorry, grandma.
I’ll introduce my favorite song today, Birthday by Anri Kumaki.
Do you remember your birthday?
A smell of a candle, You inhaled in.
Let’s celebrate you,
and today and tomorrow for you.
誕生日のことは覚えていますか?
ろうそくのにおい 胸にためた
あなたのことをお祝いしましょう
あなたである今日と明日のために
Congratulations.
You’ve struggled along to arrive at today
You get one more memory.
Thank you.
You don’t need special reasons.
It is OK just the way you are.
おめでとう
今日まで辿りついたんだよ
思い出がまた一つ増えました
ありがとう
理由は何もないんだよ

My friends went back to their family homes due to Obon so I could not meet them during the summer vacation.
I always envied my friends’ birthday parties.
What I remember about my birthday party is that, when I went to grandma’s house (a bit more natural) she picked up a hornets’ nest and gave me their larvae for nutrition.
Who can eat such a thing?
I thought it at that time. (That's what I thought at the time.)
However, thinking about that time, I know now that she’d cared about me.
I never really had birthday parties either.. >.< But I don't mind because it was okay. ^_^ I hope you'll still have a good birthday. :)
Anyway, Happy birthday Kyoko!
Today, August 14th, is my birthday. (We tend to write the month before the day in English)

Enjoy!
As for the date format, what you wrote is correct too and I prefer that format since I'm British.

My friends went back to family's homes due to for Obon and so I could not meet my friends them during the summer vacation. (Because you already said my friends, you do not need to say it twice and it can be replaced with the pronoun "them")
My birthday is close to Christmas so everyone is gone.
僕は一週間前誕生日でした!
新しい環境でも頑張ってくださいね☆
この歌はすごいきれいです
My friends went back to families home due to Obon so I could not meet my friends them during the summer vacation. You could also just say "families."
お誕生日おめでとうございます。
My birthday is in February. I always wish my birthday would be by this time of the year. Well, in fact, like Kyoko, my birthday is in summer. Yes, in a different month of the year, but the same season ^^. Well, is because I live in the South Hemisphere, he, he.
Because my birthday is in summer, when I was a child all my friends always was taking trips with their parents and almost no one came to my parties, was very boring. I never thought that someone that born in August could wish would be born near February!
Happy birthday, Kyoko!
Thank you for your kindness. I'm really happy to get your messages and have such kinds of good friends. ^^
I like this song. The song is played as background music every day when the TV news shows a newborn baby and his/her parents.
Their joyful looks make me very happy. ^^
And wow, larva????!!! gross!! XD
Anyways,
Happy Birthday!!
私の誕生日は8月19日です。同じ日に、 大学で行きますよ(悪い日ね) =(
My Birthday is September 8th, which is normally the first week of school, as I got older I didn't really have birthday parties anymore, so I understand what you have gone through.
The song is so beautiful, I wish it was longer!
I hope you had an amazing birthday today, you definitely deserve it! :)
いい曲ですね。
Those lyrics are pretty.
