A Rachel a chara,
If someone does give you a translation for this you must be forewarned that it won't be all rhyming and ringing since it was probably originally written in English and thus a translation won't fit within the confines of the metor. If noone helps you here you ought to go to irishgaelictranslator.com where I suspect you might get more attention for this kind of translation request.

Hi Unregistered Guest,
Is maith liom go mór an Ghaeilge a chuir tú ar an rann sin. Tá sé níos fearr i nGaeilge ná i mBéarla!
"An seanchas gearr,
an seanchas is fearr."

Hello again everyone,
I must warn you that I dont speak a word of Irish so please pardong me.
Is this the correct translation for my Irish Blessing, please I need someone to confirm this...thanks?

It's not a literal translation, but it's close. It says
May God give you a happy and long life,
For he understands life's twists:
There's a lack of angels on earth,
And heaven is overflowing.
But I hope it sounds a little better than that in Irish. |

It's much better in the Irish version - the English sounds like a silly greeting card |
