Here’s to a long life and a merry one.
A quick death and an easy one
A pretty girl and an honest one
A cold beer—and another one!
It is better to spend money
like there’s no tomorrow
than to spend tonight
like there’s no money!
May you die in bed
at ninety-five years,
shot by a jealous husband
(or wife).
May the sound
of happy music,
And the lilt
of Irish laughter,
fill your heart
with gladness,
that stays forever after.
May your glass
be ever full.
May the roof
over your head
be always strong.
And may you be in heaven
half an hour
before
the devil knows
you’re dead.
When we drink,
we get drunk.
When we get drunk,
we fall asleep.
When we fall asleep,
we commit no sin.
When we commit no sin,
we go to heaven.
So, let’s all get drunk,
and go to heaven!
May you always have
a clean shirt,
a clear conscience,
and enough coins
in your pocket
to buy a pint!
May the winds
of fortune
sail you,
may you sail
a gentle sea,
may it always be
the other guy
who says
“This drink’s on me.”
May your doctor
never earn a dollar
out of you
and may your heart
never give out.
May the ten toes
of your feet
steer you
clear
of all misfortune,
and before
you’re much older,
may you hear
much better
toasts
than this.
