St. Patrick's Day Irish Toasts and Blessings
By: Tippy & Alfred
Bless your little Irish heart -- and every other Irish part.
~~~
May you taste the sweetest pleasures that fortune ere bestowed,
and may all your friends remember all the favors you are owed.
~~~
May you have the health of a salmon -- a strong heart and
a wet mouth.
~~~
May you never make an enemy
When you could make a friend —
Unless you meet a fox among your chickens.
~~~
Here's to a long life and a merry one.
A quick death and an easy one.
A pretty girl and an honest one.
A cold beer - and another one!
~~~
Here's to our wives and girlfriends: May they never meet!
~~~
May the grass grow long on the road to hell for want of use.
~~~
May you live to be a hundred years, with one extra year
to repent.
~~~
When we drink, we get drunk.
When we get drunk, we fall asleep.
When we fall asleep, we commit no sin.
When we commit no sin, we go to heaven.
So, let's all get drunk, and go to heaven!
~~~
May the roof above you never fall in,
And those gathered beneath it never fall out.
~~~
May I see you grey and combing your grandchildren's hair.
~~~
Here's to women's kisses,
and to whiskey, amber clear;
Not as sweet as a woman's kiss,
but a darn sight more sincere!
~~~
May the face of every good news and the back of every bad
news be towards us.
~~~
May the saddest day of your future be no worse than the happiest
day of your past.
~~~
May your pockets be heavy—
Your heart be light,
And may good luck pursue you
Each morning and night.
~~~
May your right hand always be stretched out in friendship
and never in want.
~~~
May the rocks in your field turn to gold.
~~~
May you have the hindsight to know where you've been,
the foresight to know where you're going,
and the insight to know when you've gone too far.
~~~
May God grant you always...
A sunbeam to warm you,
A moonbeam to charm you,
A sheltering angel, so nothing can harm you.
~~~
May the winds of fortune sail you,
May you sail a gentle sea.
May it always be the other guy
who says, "this drink's on me."
~~~
May the blessings of each day
Be the blessings you need most.
~~~
May the hinges of our friendship never grow rusty.
~~~
May you never find trouble
All crowdin' and shovin'
But always good fortune
All smilin' and lovin'
~~~
May those that love us, love us.
And, those that don't love us,
May God turn their hearts.
And, if He doesn't turn their hearts,
May He turn their ankles...
So, we'll know them by their limping.
~~~
If God sends you down a stony path,
May He give you strong shoes.
~~~
May the light of heaven shine on your grave.
~~~
May you die in bed at 95 years,
Shot by a jealous wife!
