Could it be that there has never been one? Okay, all you Irish folks...for this coarse american decendent, could you please help me out and share some of your lilting, witty, and heartfelt blessings so that I may bestowe them upon other unsuspecting souls. Thank you :-) Kristine |

ISBN: 0-517-39989-X. Enjoy May the good saints protect yoou And bless youo today And may trouble ignore you Each Step of the way. May Joy and peace surround you, Contentment latch your door And happiness be with you now And bless you evermore These things I warmly wish for you Someone to love Some wrok to do A Bit of sun A bit of cheer And a guardian angel always near May the blessing of light be upon you Light without and lioght within And in all your comings and goings may you ever have a kindly greeting From them you meet along the road Slainte Jimmy |
