      Some of it is taken from an old irish blessing, some of the rest from the culture.

    Greetings from Northern California. I’m not Irish but my grandparents were. I guess you’d call me one of the Irish diaspora. I visited Ireland and Northern Ireland in June of 2019, I asked a man in Dublin if my last name was Irish and he said yes and welcome home. I really felt a kinship with the Irish people. I wouldn’t mind moving there.

I've never met so many happy people in my life. When something unfortunate happens, they just laugh it off. I left my heart in Brasil. Much love and many blessings to you - btw, I'm of Irish descent.

    Like the waves of the ocean
    Crashing on the cliffs of Moher
    The western winds a blowing
    All along the Galway shore
    From the high walls of Derry
    To the rollin' hills of Kerry
    All across this Irish homeland
    There's a welcome at the door
    May the road rise to meet you
    A smile always greet you
    May our friendship be always true and strong
    As the sun sets in the west
    I wish you all the best
    Please God we'll meet again before too long
    Oh the troubles of our world
    We'll leave them at the door
    We'll raise a glass to friends who've passed
    Remembering them once more
    May the luck of the Irish
    Be with you every day
    Who knows what tomorrow brings
    Let's live for today
    May the road rise to meet you
    A smile always greet you
    May our friendship be always true and strong
    And as the sun sets in the west
    I wish you all the best
    Please God we'll meet again before too long
    May the road rise to meet you
    A smile always greet you
    May our friendship be always true and strong
    And as the sun sets in the west
    I wish you all the best
    Please God we'll meet again before too long
    Final Chorus
    May the road rise to meet you
    A smile always greet you
    May our friendship be always
    True and strong
    As the Sun sets in the west
    I wish you all the best
    Please God we'll meet again
    Please God we'll meet again
    Please God we'll meet again
    Before too long

    May God always bless you, dear Irish brothers, wherever you are, on Emerald Isle or loads of miles away. May your beautiful Gaeilge language live on and shine out once more. May your hearts remain brave, persistent and full of kindness, no matter what.
