Crown = Loyalty Heart= Love Hands= Friendship
The Claddagh's distinctive design features two hands clasping a heart, and usually surmounted by a crown. The elements of this symbol are often said to correspond to the qualities of love (the heart), friendship (the hands), and loyalty (the crown). The expression which was associated with these symbols in the giving of the ring was: "With my two hands I give you my heart, and crown it with my love." Yet, the expression, "Let love and friendship reign forever" can be found as another meaning for the symbols. The way that a Claddagh ring is worn on the hand is usually intended to convey the wearer's romantic availability, or lack thereof. The ring is worn on the right hand with the heart facing outward to show that the wearer is not romantically linked but is looking for love. When turned inwards, it is shown that the wearer is in a relationship, or their heart has been "captured". Noting that the heart is pointing down the hand and into the veins which lead to the wearer's heart. The ring worn on the left hand with the heart facing outward shows the wearer is engaged; turned inward indicates the wearer is married.
The Heart and Crown tatto has a few meanings. First and foremost, it is usually identified as having two hands holding the heart on either side. This is whats called a Claddah design. It was first used in early Irish traditional jewlery. The crown represents the kingdom in which a prince resided. The heart represent the friendship that he shared with a lonely pauper who was his best friend. The hands represent each of their hands holding the heart to represent the friendship together anf the crown to share the kingdom. Usually a ring like this is used as either a promise ring or a friendship ring. With the heart turned out it means youre looking for love or you are "open." With the crown turned in, it means you are "taken." You have already found your love.
Many Irish use the claddagh ring for marriage since the 1700s. The hands represent friendship, the crown represents loyalty and the heart represents love. The custom started in a small village near Galway on the west coast of Ireland. Another Irish tradition is a grad celebration of food and drink for the deceased called an Irish wake. Easter is a time of spring cleaning where homes are blessed by the local priest.
The claddagh ring consists of a heart clasped by two hands with a crown over it. The hands are for friendship, the heart is for love and the crown is for loyalty. When worn on the right hand with the heart facing outwards, the wearer signifies that they are single. When worn on the right hand with the heart facing inwards, the wearer indicates they are "taken" or in a relationship. On the left hand with the heart facing outwards signifies engagement and on the left hand facing inwards indicates marriage.
In Irish it would be DO CHROÍ.
God (the cross) is in your heart, which sets you free (wings for freedom) while you are under the care of the King (the crown - usually crown of thorns)
