I’ve always thought it to mean that “When you pass out drunk in the street, may the road rise up to catch you so you don’t fall as hard.”

But maybe I’m thinking a bit TOO Irish…

My husbands brother passed last year, and rubber bracelets were made in his remembrance. My husband wore his every single day and its finally broken. I am getting a nicer more sturdy one made for him and wish to inscribe it with a gaelic Irish saying somewhere along lines of “never forgotten” . But really looking for anything short simple and meaningful. Any help would be so appreciated.

It would be wonderful if there were more websites with the Irish language spoken. I know one poem but can’t find the translation!

Responding to no. 22 Bail ó Dia annso is a blessing meaning ‘prosperity from God here’…IOW may God bless this house with prsperity….Bail ó Dhia ort translates prosperity from God on you…which means ‘good for you’…as in Tá Gaeilge agat! Bail ó Dhia ort! – you speak irish! good for you!…

titim ar chac ach ní salach mé…
