St Patrick's Day Greetings 2007 from President
McAleese
Beannachtaí na Féile Pádraig ar chlann mhór dhomhanda
na nGael, sa bhaile agus ar fud na cruinne, ar ár lá
náisiúnta ceiliúrtha.
A very happy St Patrick's Day to all those taking part
in this year's festivities which link Ireland's
global family and its many friends in a huge
celebration 'of the green' all over the world. It was
Irish emigrants who introduced their vibrant culture to
a multitude of new homelands and we have them to thank
for the tide of affection and enthusiasm which the name
of St Patrick evokes far and wide. Today a prosperous
Ireland is itself attracting immigrants from many
far-off shores and they are adding greatly to our
legendary cultural buoyancy. The Irish love of music,
dance, fun and friendship will be showcased in every
continent thanks to the work of countless committees
whose passion for Ireland and her unique heritage has
seen the St Patrick's Day pageant grow into a truly
global phenomenon. I thank them all for this
outstanding network which connects Ireland to her
children and her friends in such a joyful way. I hope
that their commitment and dedication will be repaid by
the best St Patrick's Day celebrations ever.
Enjoy them wherever you are and may St Patrick bless
each one of you.
MARY McALEESE
PRESIDENT OF IRELAND

In Scotland we'd say Ceud milé Failte. Wasn't sure if you made a spelling error or not.
