How would you write may the luck of Irish be with always and for ever in Gaelic?

There isn't a single, perfect translation of "May the luck of the Irish be with you always and forever" into Gaelic, as the concept of "luck of the Irish" is culturally specific. However, we can get close using a combination of Irish (Gaeilge) and possibly some poetic license.

Here are a few options, each with slightly different nuances:

Option 1 (More literal, but less flowing):

* Go mbeadh an t-ádh na nGael leat i gcónaí agus go deo. This translates more directly to "May the luck of the Gaels be with you always and forever." "Gael" is a broader term than just "Irish," encompassing Irish, Scottish, and other related Celtic people.

Option 2 (More poetic and flowing):

* Go mbeannaí Dia dhuit le sonas agus le dea-ádh síoraí. This translates to "May God bless you with happiness and eternal good luck." This avoids the direct "luck of the Irish" phrasing but captures the sentiment.

Option 3 (Focus on good fortune):

* Go mbeidh an t-ádh ort i gcónaí agus go deo. This translates to "May luck be with you always and forever," This is a simpler and more common way to wish someone good fortune.

Which option is best?

Option 2 is likely the most naturally flowing and culturally appropriate for a blessing. Option 1 is accurate if you want to be very precise about using the term "Irish," but it sounds a bit more stiff. Option 3 is a good compromise for simplicity.

Remember that pronunciation is crucial in Gaelic. If you intend to say this aloud, you should consult a native speaker or pronunciation guide to ensure accuracy.
