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 palm of His hand.


Thank you, Charles. Have a lovely day.

What a lovely blessing! I don’t know much Scottish, but one of the phrases I know is an old blessing, “Lang may your lum reek” which literally translates to “Long may your chimney smoke,” and means a long and prosperous life 🙂
