Irish Everyday Toasts
May you be in heaven a full half hour
before the devil knows your dead.
May you live as long as you want
May you be in heaven a full half hour
before the devil knows your dead.
May you live as long as you want
and never want as long as you live.
May your heart be light and happy,
May your heart be light and happy,
May your smile be big and wide,
And may your pockets always have
a coin or two inside!
Always remember to forget
The troubles that passed away.
But never forget to remember
The blessings that come each day.
May you always have a clean shirt,
a clear conscience,
and enough coins in your pocket
to buy a pint!
An Old Irish Blessing
May the road rise up to meet you.
May the road rise up to meet you.
May the wind always be at your back.
May the sun shine warm upon your face,
and rains fall soft upon your fields.
And until we meet again,
May God hold you in the palm of His hand
May the sun shine warm upon your face,
and rains fall soft upon your fields.
And until we meet again,
May God hold you in the palm of His hand
Irish Diplomacy...
is the ability to tell a man to go to hell
so that he looks forward to making the trip
