Cinco de Mayo is not a Mexican holiday. It originated in California during the 1860's and is a commemoration of the Battle of Puebla.

A simple "Feliz Cinco de Mayo!" will do just fine or "Tenga un feliz Cinco de Mayo!" ("Have a happy 5th of May!")

Cinco de Mayo is NOT the same as Mexican Independence Day, which takes place on September 16th and is also known as "El Grito de Dolores" ("The Shout of Dolores," referring to the cry of independence issued on that day in 1810 from the town of Dolores.)

The translation would be "Felíz Cinco de Mayo." Note that Cinco de Mayo is celebrated much more in the US than in Mexico!
