Irish Toasts

May the grass grow long on the 
road to hell for want of use.

May you have warm words 
on a cold evening,
 a full moon on a dark night, 
and the road downhill 
all the way to your door.

May you live to be a hundred years, 
with one extra year to repent.

May you be in heaven 1/2 hour before
 the devil knows you're dead.

As you slide down the banisters of life may
 the splinters never point the wrong way.

May the wind at your back always be your own.

There are many good reasons for drinking,
One has just entered my head,
If a man doesn't drink when he's living,
How the hell can he drink when he's dead?

May your troubles be as few and as 
far apart as my Grandmothers teeth.

May you get all your wishes but one,
So you always have something to strive for.

May God bring good health 
to your enemies enemies!

In Heaven there is no beer, 
that is why we drink it here.

May the blessings of each day be 
the blessings you need most,
May the most you wish for be the least you get,
May the Lord keep you in His Hand
 and never close His fist too tight.

Here's to you, here's to me, 
the best of friends we'll always be. 
But if we ever disagree, 
forget you here's to ME!!

Here's to your coffin...
May it be built of 100 year old oaks 
which I will plant tomorrow...

Ode to Beer of all my favorite things to do, 
The utmost is to have a brew. 
My love grows for my foamy friend, 
with each thirst-quenching elbow bend. 
Beer's so frosty, smooth, and cold------
It's paradise----Pure liquid gold 
 Yes beer means many things to me,
 that's all for now -------I gotta Pee

An Irishman is never drunk 
as long as he can hold onto one blade of grass 
and not fall off the face of the earth.

"May the dust of your carriage 
blind the eyes of your foe!"

"May the sons of your daughters smile up in your face."

Here's to you as good as you are,
Here's to me as bad as I am,
As good as you are,
And as bad as I am,
I'm as good as you are,
As bad as I am.

The future is not ours to know, and it may never be-
so let us live and give our best and give it lavishly!

There are good ships, 
and there are wood ships, 
and ships that sail the sea.
But the best ships are friendships,
 and may they always be.

May you always be blessed
with walls for the wind,
a roof for the rain,
a warm cup of tea by the fire,
laughter to cheer you,
those you love near you,
and all that your heart might desire.

Health, and long life to you 
Land without rent to you
The partner of your heart to you 
and when you die, 
may your bones rest in Ireland!

May the love and protection St. Patrick can give
  Be yours in abundance as long as you live.

May all the giant hearts be tall as day, 
may all your winter nights be warm as may.

If you're lucky enough to be Irish, 
you're lucky enough!

Here's to our wives and sweethearts!! 
May they never meet!!

Here's to the land of the Shamrock so green,
Here's to each Lad and his darlin Colleen,
Here's to the ones we love dearest and most.
May God bless ole Ireland, that's an Irish mans toast.

May you never forget what is worth remembering,
Or remember what is best forgotten.

May your blessings outnumber
The shamrocks that grow,
And may trouble avoid you
Wherever you go.

I have known many liked not a few 
loved only one so this toast's for you

May you be rich in blessings, 
poor in misfortune,
Slow to make enemies, 
quick to make friends.
But rich or poor, 
slow or quick,
May you know nothing but 
happiness from this day forward.

Never reach out your hand further
 than you can withdraw it.

A Wedding Toast

Here's to lying, cheating, stealing, and drinking.
If you lie, may you lie together.
If you cheat, may you cheat the devil.
If you steal, may you steal each other's hearts.
And if you drink, may we all drink to your happiness.

I drink to your health when I'm with you,
I drink to your health when I'm alone,
I drink to your health so often,
I'm starting to worry about my own
