Music from my Mammy – Remembering Betty 6 years on


My Mam died 6 years ago today. She sang this song at births, marriages, goodbyes and any other party that we might have had.
Hearing this song is a memory the whole family shares – so this is for all the Keeleys 🙂

May you always walk in sunshine,
slumber warm when night winds blow
May you always live with laughter
for a smile becomes you so
May good fortune find your doorway
may the bluebird sing your song
May no trouble travel your way
may no worry stay too long
May you heartaches be forgotten
may no tears be spilled
May old acquaintance be remembered
and your cup of kindness filled
An may you always be a dreamer
may your wildest dreams come true
May you find someone to love
as much as we love you
