“May your thoughts be as glad as the shamrocks. May your heart be as light as a song. May each day bring you bright, happy hours. That stay with you all the year long.”

“May the Irish hills caress you. May her lakes and rivers bless you. May the luck of the Irish enfold you. May the blessings of Saint Patrick behold you.”

May good luck be your friend
In whatever you do
And may trouble be always
A stranger to you.

May you always have these blessings A soft breeze when summer comes- A warm fireside in winter- And always- the warm, soft smile of a friend.

“May the enemies of Ireland never eat bread nor drink whiskey, but be afflicted with itching without the benefit of scratching”. Ouch is all I can say to that one.

“May your neighbors respect you,
Trouble neglect you,
The angels protect you,
And heaven accept you.”

“May the Lord keep you in His hand and never close His fist too tight.”
