Irish Blessing

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 will know them by their limping.

What does Blarney mean? He has licked the blarney stone; he deals in the wonderful, or tips us the traveller. The blarney stone is a triangular stone on the very top of an ancient castle of that name in the county of Cork in Ireland, extremely difficult of access; so that to have ascended to it, was considered as a proof of perseverance, courage, and agility, whereof many are supposed to claim the honour, who never achieved the adventure: and to tip the blarney, is figuratively used telling a marvellous story, or falsity; and also sometimes to express flattery. Irish.

This is the day
It’s a joy to adress you
As Irish folks do
May Heaven bless you!

Four Leaf Clover

Each leaf on the four leaf clover represents one of the following:

• 1st leaf is Hope
• 2nd is Faith
• 3rd is Love
• 4th is Luck

Tip: Never iron a four-leaf clover, because you don’t want to press your luck!

Irish Blessing

May the road rise up to meet you.
May the wind be always at your back.
May the sun shine warm upon your face;
The rains fall soft upon your fields and until we meet again,
May God hold you in the hollow of His hand.

Live Webcam: Leprechaun Watch

For a bit of fun, this video was made on St Patrick’s Day last year in the general area of a fairy ring (Tipperary, Ireland). In the trees on the right, around 8 seconds into the video, something can be glimpsed running past at high speed. It is too far away to claim that it is a leprechaun or some other form of Irish fairy but who knows?

Everyone’s Irish on St. Patrick’s Day, isn’t it grand to know the heart and soul of you belongs to Ireland!
