An Irish Blessing
Irish Traditional
Arranged by James E. Moore
Sung by True Voices
Recorded in June 2021

May the road rise to meet you.
May the wind be always at your back.
Mag die sonskyn warm op jou gesig,
(May the sunshine warm upon your face,)
Imvula ine emasimini enu.
(The rains fall soft upon your fields.)

Side sibonane kwakhona,
Mag God jou vashou in die palm van Sy hand.
And until we meet again,
May God hold you in the palm of His hand.
