Irish luck toasts have a deep tradition in Irish culture. The difficult nature of farming in Ireland meant that many people lived hard lives. Many Irish blessing toasts were written to show support, understanding and comradeship among these hard-working people.
Whatever the occasion, whether it is a wedding, holiday or party, knowing some Irish toasts can make the party special. Irish toasts have a special feel to them that makes everyone feel warm and lucky. Here are some traditional Irish luck toasts that you can bring to your next gathering.
May the luck of the Irish
Lead to happiest heights,
And the highway you travel
Be lined with green lights.
May you live as long as you want,
And never want as long as you live.
May the Good Lord take a liking to you, but not too soon!
Here's hoping you're in Heaven 10 minutes before the devil knows you're dead.
If you're lucky enough to be Irish,
You're lucky enough!
May your pockets be heavy,
Your heart be light,
And may good luck pursue you
Each morning and night.
May you have warm words on a cold evening,
A full moon on a dark night,
And a smooth road all the way to your door.
I've drunk to your health in company,
I've drunk to your health alone,
I've drunk to your health so many times,
I've darn near ruined my own! Here's to me!
May your neighbors respect you,
Trouble neglect you,
The angels protect you,
And heaven accept you.
May the Lord keep you in His hand
And never close His fist too tight.
Do not resent growing old,
For many are denied the privilege.
May the leprechauns be near you
To spread luck along your way,
And may all the Irish angels
Smile upon you on St. Patrick's Day.
May God grant you always:
A sunbeam to warm you,
A moonbeam to charm you,
A sheltering angel, so nothing can harm you.
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 the blessings of each day
Be the blessings you need the most.
