Many Irish Blessings



May the wings of the butterfly kiss the sun
And find your shoulder to light on,
To Bring you luck, happiness and riches
Today, tomorrow and beyond.

~Irish prayer~

May the faith that gives us hope,
May the love that shows the way,
May the peace that cheers the heart
Be yours this day.

~Irish prayer~

May there always be work
For your hands to do...
May your purse always hold
A coin or two...

May the sun always shine
on your window pane
May a rainbow be certain
to follow the rain...

May the hand of friend
Always be near you
May God fill your heart
With gladness to cheer you

And until we meet again,
May God hold you
In the palm of his hand.

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 hearts desire.

kloverline

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.

kloverline

May you have warm words on a cold evening,
A full moon on a dark night,
And the road downhill all the way to your door.

kloverline

May God grant you many years to live,
For sure he must be knowing
The earth has angels all too few
And heaven is overflowing.

kloverline

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
