May the blessing of light be on you,
light without and light within.
May the blessed sunlight shine upon you
and warm your heart
till it glows like a great fire
and strangers warm themselves as well as friends.
And may the light shine out of the eyes of you,
like a candle set in the window of a house,
bidding the wanderer to come in
out of the storm.
May the blessing of rain be on you,
the soft sweet rain.
May it fall upon your spirit
so that little flowers may spring up
and shed their sweetness on the air.
And may the blessing of the great rains be on you,
to beat upon your spirit and wash it fair and clean,
and leave many a shining pool
where the blue heaven shines,
and sometimes a star.
May the blessing of the earth be on you,
the great round earth,
may you ever have a kindly greeting for people
as you're going along the roads.
And now may the Lord bless you,
and bless you kindly. Amen.
