Wearing 'o the Green

Lá Fhéile Pádraig Sona Duit!
(Happy St. Patrick's Day! - in Irish Gaelic)



Legend of Saint Patrick

Good St. Patrick traveled far, to teach God's Holy Word
And when he came to Erin's sod, a wondrous thing occurred
He plucked a shamrock from the earth and held it in His hand
To symbolize the Trinity that all might understand
The first leaf for the Father
And the second for the Son
The third leaf for the Holy Spirit
All three of them in one.

sláinte! (cheers)
