   The sentiment means happy birthday, but "Carrying luck to you this day" is closer to a literal translation. It is Scots Gaelic and the previous respondent said.

   Hmm, no, 'breith here means bearing, as in giving birth. 'Dhut' is 'to you' personal, dhuibh is to all of you, or is the polite singular form (as it is here). There is no 'luck' or carrying. It's more like happy bearing (birthing) day to you.
