AN IRISH WISH

       May you always have...
       A sunbeam to warm you,
       Good luck to charm you,
       And a sheltering angel
       So nothing can harm you,
       Laughter to cheer you,
       Faithful friends near you,
       And whenever you pray,
       Heaven to hear you.

       May your joys
       Be deep and many,
       May your heart
       be light and glad,
       May you have the best
       St. Patrick's Day
       That you have ever had.

IRISH BLESSING

May Christ and His saints stand
       Between you and harm.
       Mary and her Son.
       St. Patrick with his staff.
       Martin with his mantle.
       Bridget with her veil.
       Michael with his shield.
       And God over all with His strong right hand.

IRISH BLESSING

May you always have...
       Walls for the wind
       A roof for the rain
       Tea beside the fire
       Laughter to cheer you
       Those you love near you
       And all your heart might
       Desire

IRISH SAYINGS AND PORVERBS

WHAT’S GOOD FOR THE GOOSE IS GOOD FOR THE GANDER

THE OLDER THE FIDDLE THE SWEETER THE TUNE

IT’S NO USE BOILING YOUR CABBAGE TWICE

THERES NO NEED TO FEAR THE WIND IF YOUR HAYSTACKS ARE TIED
DOWN

DO NOT MISTAKE A GOATS BEARD FOR A FINE STALLIONS TAIL

                  DRINK IS THE CURSE OF THE LAND.
             IT MAKES YOU FIGHT WITH YOUR NEIGHBOUR.
              IT MAKES YOU SHOOT AT YOUR LANDLORD
                     AND IT MAKES YOU MISS HIM.

IRISH POEM

May the road rise up to meet you,May the wind be always at your back,

May the sun shine warm upon you face,And the rains fall soft upon your fields

And until we meet again, May god hold you in the palm of his hand..
