Irish Toasts and Blessings

Irish ‘Road’ Blessing:

May the road rise up to meet you
May the wind be always at your back
May the sun shine down upon your face.
And the rain fall soft upon your fields
Until we meet again
May God hold you in the hollow of his hand

Irish Drinking Toast

May your glass be ever full.
May the roof over your head be always strong.
And may you be in heaven
Half an hour before the devil knows you’re dead.

Alternative Irish Toast:

Here’s to our wives and girlfriends:
May they never meet!
