Irish Wedding Poetry

No doubt my mother, who was born and raised on a grassy slope overlooking the Atlantic ocean near Lahinch, County Clare, would be pleased that so many Dublin brides are falling for our tiara and jewelry sets. In her charming memory I offer you one of my favorite Irish wedding blessings.

You are the star of each night,
You are the brightness of every morning,
You are the story of each guest,
You are the report of every land.
No evil shall befall you, on hill nor bank,
In field or valley, on mountain or in glen.
Neither above, nor below, neither in sea,
Nor on shore, in skies above,
Nor in the depths.
You are the kernel of my heart,
You are the face of my sun,
You are the harp of my music,
You are the crown of my company.
