Go n-éirí an bóthar leat
This is an Irish Gaelic version of "May the Road Rise Up to Meet You" with an English translation of the Gaelic…
Go n-éirí an bóthar leat
May You Succeed on the Road
Irish Blessing
Irish Blessing
(Irish Gaelic)
(English)
Go n-éirí an bóthar leat.
Go raibh an chóir ghaoithe i gcónaí leat.
Go dtaitní an ghrian go bog bláth ar d'éadan,
Go dtite an bháisteach go bog mín ar do ghoirt.
Agus go gcasfar le chéile sinn arís,
Go gcoinní Dia i mbosa A láimhe thú.
May you succeed on the road
May the favour of the wind always be with you
May the sun shine softly and nicely on your face
May the rain fall softly and finely on your fields
And until we meet together again
May God keep you in the palm of His hand.
