Happy Saint Patrick's Day Today

Happy Saint Patrick's Day.

On Saint Patrick's day
The little children will have fun
Today and everyone is Irish
On Saint Patrick's day and the tales of
Saint Patrick are strong and bold and
A story of his faith that will never grow old

And from Coventry to Galway bay
The celebrations hold their sway
And the little leprechauns are laughing
Hiding in the green fields of the morning mist
And the Irish spirit strong and ever true
A heritage of legends shining bright

And Saint Patrick’s day a joyous cheer
And stories told for litttle children to hear
The legends of Saint Patrick and
The parades around the world
Have just begun and Irish music
Fills the air a joyful sound everyehere
As vibrant floats and dancers twirl around

And bag pipes play classic Irish tunes today
And little children dance morning to noon
With friends and family gathered near
A celebration of Saint Patrick's day full of cheer

And the shamrocks and clovers
Are so beautiful and bright
A symbol of Ireland shining in the
Lord's light and its
A merry green day and
Ireland's pride its spirit free
Celebrating eternity
And Saint Patrick’s day is
A beautiful and magical sight

And memories to hold deep
Inside our hearts in life and
Cities around the world a vibrant
And bustling scene and
Laughter echoing in the festive cheer
Green clad figures Irish
Flags everywhere and children's
Faces painted bright and keen
And Saint Patrick in everyone's
Heart and your memory will forever stay

And Ireland's hearts forever true
Saint Patrick we will always love you
A bond that joins family and
Friends hand in hand

So let the good times forever flow and
May happiness peace and love grow
And good fortune attend and god bless
You all who celebrate Saint Patrick's day
until the very end.
