Hi Raja,
There is a plethora of words or phrases to describe one's emotions. Here are some suggestions:
*Happiness: ecstatic, exhilarated, excited, over the moon, in bliss etc.
Example: The newly-married couple was in bliss. / They were over the moon when they learnt they had won the lottery.
* Angry: fuming, indignant, offended, upset, irate etc.
Example: He was fuming with anger when he realised someone had vandalised his property.
* Hungry: ravenous, gobble up (some food), voracious (appetite), insatiable (appetite), famished etc.
Example: The famished boys had a voracious appetite and gobbled up their pancakes.
* Fear: horrified, petrified, immobilised with fear, hair stand on end, jittery etc.
Example: They were immobilised with fear and stood rooted to the ground when the heard the avalanche.
Hope these help.
Cheers,
Lance

You would say:
I am happy.
I am angry.
I am hungry.
I am scared.
But, somehow I get the feeling that this is not the answer you're looking for.
If I'm right, please give me more context / details about your question.
Have a good day.
