A Few (shorter) Irish Blessings for St. Patrick’s Day

May your neighbors respect you,
Trouble neglect you,
The angels protect you,
And heaven accept you

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

May there be a generation of children
On the children of your children.

May God be with you and bless you,
May you see your children’s children,
May you be poor in misfortune, rich in blessings.
May you know nothing but happiness
From this day forward.

May those who love us, love us
And those who don’t love us,
May God turn their hearts
And if he can’t turn their hearts,
May he turn their ankles
So we will know them by their limping!
