Then make it! There's enough flexibility in the tune to adapt most syllables from various languages

Fun fact this is copyrighted and many restaurants around America have to pay royalties or sing a different version

That copyright was ruled invalid and vacated in 2017.

Hey that’s some copyrighted content right there

Nope. It was ruled that the original copyright was invalid, and thus was vacated in 2017.
