Irish Prayer/Poem

Does anyone have a copy of this? One of the sentences is 'may the wind be always at your back'.........

May the road rise up to meet you.
May the wind be always at your back
May the sun shine warm upon your fields and, until we meet again, May God hold you in the palm of his hand.

Hope this helps.

I have heard 'May the Wind' at many funerals. I am thinking of reading another Irish poem for my sister's wedding. Maybe you'd like this one instead....

May God be with you and Bless you
May you see your Children's Children
May you be poor in misfortune and rich in Bless
May you nothing but Hapiness form the Day foward

Hope this helps!!
