May brooks and trees and singing hills Join in the chorus too, And every gentle wind that blows Send happiness to you.

This verse is framed as a benediction—an affectionate wish for another person’s well-being—using the natural world as a choir of goodwill. Brooks, trees, hills, and wind are personified as if they can “join in the chorus,” suggesting that happiness is not merely an internal feeling but something the whole environment can seem to confer. The imagery is pastoral and musical: nature becomes both accompaniment and messenger, carrying “happiness” on the wind. In the tradition of so-called “Irish blessings,” the tone is communal and gentle, emphasizing warmth, harmony, and everyday grace rather than doctrinal instruction.
