May your glasses be ever full. May the roof over your heads be always strong. And may you be in heaven Half an hour before the devil knows you're dead.
May you have food and raiment, a soft pillow for your head, May you be forty years in heaven before the devil knows you're dead.
May you be in heaven an hour, before the Devil knows your dead.
May the road rise up to meet you, May the wind be ever at your back, May the sun shine warm upon your face, The rain fall soft upon your fields, And until we meet again, May God hold you in the hollow of his hand. And may you be in Heaven a half hour before the devil knows you're dead.
May the luck of the Irish possess you. May the devil fly off with your worries. May God bless you forever and ever.
