May the Road Rise Up to Meet You – A Celtic 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; May the rains fall soft upon your fields And ’til we meet again, May God hold you In the hollow of His hand.
Here is also a Romanian version of the blessing, sang by the choir of my church in Iasi, Romania.
I add here, for Romanian readers, my translation of the words of this prayer, which I will publish as a separate post:
Drumul lin să-ţi stea ‘nainte
Barca pânzele să-şi umfle-n vânt
Soarele să-ţi încălzească faţa
Ploaia molcom cadă-ţi pe câmpii
Şi pân’ ne-o revedea
Domnul Dumnezeu
Să te ţină-n palma sa.
