Dance as if no one were watching,
Sing as if no one were listening,
And live every day as if it were your last.
-Irish Blessing
Health and long life to you,
the woman of your choice to you,
a child every year to you,
land without rent to you
and may you die in Ireland.
-Irish Blessing
I wish you health, I wish you well,
and happiness galore.
I wish you luck for you and friends;
what could I wish you more?
May your joys be as deep as the oceans,
your troubles as light as its foam.
And may you find, sweet peace of mind,
wherever you may roam.
-Irish Blessing
May the face of every good news
and the back of every bad news be toward us.
-Irish Blessing
May the leprechauns be near you,
To spread luck along your way.
And may all the Irish angels,
Smile upon you St. Patrick's Day.
-Irish Blessing
May there always be work for your hands to do,
May your purse always hold a coin or two.
May the sun always shine warm on your windowpane,
May a rainbow be certain to follow each rain.
May the hand of a friend always be near you,
And may God fill your heart with gladness to cheer
you.
-Irish Blessing
May the road rise to meet you
may the wind be always at your back
the sun shine warm upon your face
the rain fall soft upon your fields
and until we meet again
may God hold you in the hollow of his hand.
-Irish Blessing
May those who love us love us.
And those that don't love us,
May God turn their hearts.
And if He doesn't turn their hearts,
May He turn their ankles,
So we'll know them by their limping.
-Irish Blessing
May you be poor in misfortune
Rich in blessings
Slow to make enemies
Quick to make friends
But rich or poor,
quick or slow,
May you know nothing but happiness
From this day forward.
-Irish Blessing
May you have walls for the wind
And a roof for the rain,
And drinks bedside the fire
Laughter to cheer you
And those you love near you,
And all that your heart may desire.
-Irish Blessing
May you live to be a hundred years with one extra
year to repent.
-Irish Blessing
May your blessings outnumber
the shamrocks that grow,
And may trouble avoid you
wherever you go.
-Irish Blessing
St. Patrick was a gentleman who through strategy and
stealth
drove all the snakes from Ireland heres a toasting to
his health.
But not too many toastings lest you loose yourself
and then
forget the good St. Patrick and see all those snakes
again.
-Irish Blessing
