Hi all. looking for a bit of help please. short version is I'm hoping to read out a wee blessing at my sisters wedding in a few weeks. For family reasons and as a surprise to her I'd love to do it in Irish. I have the text, I have [I hope ] the Irish translation but I'm reaching out to see if someone would be kind enough to write it out phonetically for me. Can't express how much it would mean. Please let me know if you could help. Thank you for reading, Micheál...

Go ahead and post the English and Irish versions. I assume you want Ulster Irish.

May your mornings bring joy and your evenings bring peace.
May your troubles grow few as your blessings increase.
May the saddest day of your future be no worse than the happiest day of your past.
May your hands be forever clasped in friendship and your hearts joined forever in love.
Your lives are very special, and God has touched you in many ways.
May his blessings rest upon you and fill all your coming days

Go mbeidh áthas ar do mhaidin agus go mbeidh siocháin ar do tráthnóna.

Go laghdófar do trioblóidi de réir mar a mheadaítear do bheannachtaí.

Ná bíodh an lá is brónaí do'd thodhchaí níos measa ná d'am atá thart.

Go mbeidh do lámha ceangailte go deo le cairdeas agus do chroíthe ceangailte go deo le grá.

Tá bhúr saol an-speisialta agus tá lámh leagtha ag Dia oraibh go léir.

Go gcuirfidh sé a bheannachtaí oraibh agus go líoinfaidh sé bhurlaethanta go léir atá le teacht.

I’m going to have no time to do this until the weekend. I might want to alter some bits. In your translation both do’ (singular) and ‘bhur’ (plural) are being used for ‘your’, but I would assume it should be plural throughout? Again, Gaeilge Uladh atá tú a iarraidh (Ulster pronunciation)? ‘Bhfuil Gaeilge ag do dheirfiúr?

And there should be subjunctive mood in the sense of "may ..." following go / ná:
go raibh, go laghdaítear, ná raibh, go raibh, go gcuire, go líona
