A toast from north of the border
May the best ye hae ivver seen be the warst ye'll ivver see
May the moose ne'er lea' yer girnal wi'a tear-drap in its ee
May ye aye keep hail an' hertie till ye'r auld eneuch tae dee
May ye aye juist be sae happie as a wuss ye aye tae be
Translation for friends south of the border:
May the best you have ever seen be the worst you will ever see
May the mouse never leave your grain store with a tear-drop in its eye
May you always stay hale and hearty until you are old enough to die
May you still be as happy as I always wish you to be.
Can't resist adding one an old aunt always said at the new year-
"Lang may ye pee an' fart an' nivver need a doctor"
