St. Patrick's Day Wish

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 windowpane;
May a rainbow be certain to follow each rain;
May the hand of a friend always be near you;
May God fill your heart with gladness to cheer you.

A New Year's Blessing for You All

May you have:
Walls for the wind,
And a roof for the rain,
And drinks beside the fire;
Laughter to cheer you,
And those you love near you,
And all that your heart may desire.

~Irish blessing

An Irish Blessing

I meant to do this on Monday, St. Patrick's day... ah, well. So it goes.
An Irish Blessing for you
May those as loves us, may the good Lord bless 'em
And those as don't love us, may the good Lord turn their hearts, that he may bless 'em
And if he can't turn their hearts, may he turn their ankles
So we may know 'em by their limping
