Blessing
Language: English
May the Great Spirit send happiness to you,
May the Sun Father and the Moon mother shed their softest beams on you.
May the Four Winds of the World blow gently upon you
and upon those with whom you share your heart and home.
And everywhere shall be peace.

Language: German (Deutsch)  after the English
Möge der Große Geist dir Glück senden.
Mögen Vater Sonne und Mutter Mond ihre sanftesten Strahlen auf dich scheinen.
Mögen die vier Winde der Welt stets sanft über dir wehen
und über den deinen, mit denen du Haus und Herd teilst.
Und überall soll Frieden sein.
