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

May you always come more than you go.

Here's to me as bad as I am.
As good as you are and as bad as I am,

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

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.

And may God fill your heart with gladness to cheer you.

May you live as long as you want,
And never want as long as you live.

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.

Either way no one will frown.

For those that get to it
And refuse to do it,

To do it again.

and the wind be always at your back,
and the good Lord hold you in the hollow of his hands.
