Explanation:

“By” and “for” are inappropriate prepositions to be followed by the word “lucky”, and “to” must be used. We need the “to be” verb to indicate that the action of taking birth took place, thus, “have been born” is the correct answer. Also, since the sentence is in the passive voice, “have been born”, which is the passive form in past perfect, is correct.
