An Irish Blessing
In honor of St Patrick’s Day which we celebrate today, I offer all my friends and readers an Irish blessing for a happy and healthy life.
Happy St Patrick’s Day!
May you always have…
Walls for the winds
A roof for the rain
Tea beside the fire
Laughter to cheer you
Those you love near you
And all your heart might desire
I’ve always liked this Irish Blessing:
May the road rise to meet you,
May the wind be always at your back,
May the sun shine warm upon your face,
May the rains fall soft upon your fields,
And, until we meet again,
May God hold you in the hollow of His hand.
Beannachtaí na Féile Pádraig oraibh!
