Birthday salutations to Isa / Master Jesus!
ईशानन्दम् ईशनन्दनं तारकस्य दयाधर्मम् ।
विश्वतोषकं परप्रचारकं नमामीशं परशान्तम् ॥
īśānandam īśa-nandanaṁ tārakasya dayā-dharmam |
viśva-toṣakaṁ para-pracārakaṁ namāmīśaṁ paraśāntam ||

The Aquarian Grapevine tells that Master Jesus also traveled in India during his lost years (ages 12-30) until his ministry began, so I should hope the greetings reach their destination in flowing Sanskrit verse as well as in Aramaic. I would compose in Aramaic if I knew better.
In curious trivia, the word "paraśāntam" means "Supreme Santa" as well as "Highest Saint / Peaceful-One".
The fat man in red who carries the gifts around is his fairytale brother -- or is he? For more on the traditions of Old Yule, see North of the Moon and Lady Wyrd's four-part series on the traditions of yore.
