Change of year of registration on bc

Hi there,
I have an issue regarding the year of registration on my BC. First of all let me start by saying that my BC was recently issued by court as I was not able to find mine. I was born in 1958 and at that time there was no registration system. Plus I was born at home not hospital. i tried my best to search for previous records all i could find is my school certificates which mentioned my date of birth. I hired an attorney and he did the needful by getting the court to issue a new BC for me.
Now my real concern is that I recently found out that my mother is a former portuguese citizen and I could be entitled for citizenship as an adult child. So I got all the necessary documents needed to file my registration in portugal. Unfortunately, according to portuguese Nationality law, an adult child can only be entitled for citizenship if and only if the child's birth has been registered by his/her parents before the child turns 18! So according to that my recent issued BC mentions the date of registration as 19/9/2012 instead of my actual birth date i.e 19/9/1958. This will actually deny my application for the citizenship! Is there a way out to request court to grant permission to change the YEAR? Can this be done?
P.S: Both my parents are dead and none of my siblings have any of their births ever registered by my parents as all were born at home!
Please help!
Many thanks
Sanam

As the error has occurred in the decree of the court so you need to file an application under section 152 of CPC to get this corrected.

Thank you Mr. Sethi! I already have a lawyer working on this, although he was very confused regarding my case! He was not able to analyse any solutions, that is the reason I put my query here. I hope by telling him the solution now, he starts working on it. Thank you so much once again.

I just spoke to my lawyer about the same and now he says it is not valid reason under that section 152 CPC! I don't understand! Can my lawyer call you so that he gets this doubt cleared? Let me clear myself again, I want to change the DATE OF REGISTRATION and not the DATE OF BIRTH. Please help!
