Irish Blessings

A Gaelic Blessing

May the roads rise up to meet you.
May the wind be at your back.
May 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 palm of his hand

May your home be filled with laughter
Your pockets be filled with gold
and May you have all the happiness Your Irish heart can hold.

May the love and protection� St. Patrick can give
Be yours in abundance as long as you live

A special Irish blessing from the heart of a friend. "May good fortune be yours, May your joys never end."

These things I warmly wish for you:
Someone to love,
Some work for your hands to do,
a bit o' sun
a bit o' cheer
and a gaurdian angel always near

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 friend always be near you, and may God fill your heart with gladness to cheer you!

May good luck be with you wherever you go,
and your blessings outnumber The Shamrocks that grow

Irish Proverbs and Sayings

Tis better to buy a small bouquet and give to your friend this very day,
then a bushel of roses white and red to lay on his coffin after he's dead

Humor is like a feather pillow.
It is filled with what is easy to get
but gives great comfort

If you lie down with dogs
you'll rise with fleas

An old broom knows the dirty cornors best

Drink is the curse of the land
it makes you fight your neighbor
it makes you shoot at your landlord
and makes you miss him!

Life is like a cup of tea
it's all how you make it

Ever Wonder about what the story of leprechauns are?
What is the deal with the shamrock?
or what is the Blarney Stone?
