May there always be work for your hands to do;
May your purse always hold a coin or two;
May the sun always shine on your windowpane;
May a rainbow be certain to follow each rain;
May the hand of a friend always be near you;
May God fill your heart with gladness to cheer you.

---

May you be in Heaven a half an hour
before the Devil knows you're dead.

May God bless those who love us.

And for those who don't love us, may God turn their hearts.

And for those whose hearts cannot be turned,
May God turn their ankles
So that we may know them by their limping.
