An Irish Toast Poem by Margaret Kollmer

An Irish Toast



I picked this up from cousins in Tralee when I was there. Useful to raise a laugh: -)

Slainté do na bfhear is go mara na mná go deo.

No, I can't pronounce it either. It goes like this:

Shlanje dinna var, issga mara nam-na godeo.

and it means:

Good health to the men and that the women may live forever!

Heh heh!
