These may be offered "as is"
or included as part of a toast you decide to write on your own.
May you both live as long as you want,
And never want as long as you live
May there always be work for your
hands to do
May your purse always hold a coin or two
May the sun always shine warm on your windowpane
May a rainbow be certain to follow each rain
May the hand of a friend always be near you
And may God fill your heart with gladness to cheer you
May you be poor in misfortune,
Rich in blessings,
Slow to make enemies,
And quick to make friends
As you slide down the banister of life,
May the splinters never point the wrong way
May brooks and trees and singing hills
Join in the chorus, too
And every gentle wind that blows
Send happiness to you
