May
the blessing of the rain be on you—
the soft sweet rain.
May
it fall upon your spirit
so that all the little flowers may spring
up,
and shed their sweetness on the air.
May
the blessing of the great rains be on you,
may they beat upon your
spirit
and wash it fair and clean,
and leave there many a
shining pool
where the blue of heaven shines,
and sometimes a
star.
Irish Blessing
