May a moose ne'er leave your girnal?

May a moose ne'er leave yir girnal means = May a mouse never leave your storage chest.

It's a line from a well known Scottish toast.

All the best, Phyllis

This is a line from a time-honored toast, attributed to Robbie Burns, and it goes like this:

May the best you've ever seen be the worst you'll ever see.

May a mouse ne'er leave your girnal wi' a teardrap in his e'e.

May your lum keep blithely reekin' till ye're auld eneuch tae dee.

May ye aye be jist as happy as I wish you now tae be.

The first line is pretty straightforward.

The mouse in the second line is pronounced more like moose, and the girnal is pronounced with a hard G, as in the word girdle. The wish here is that the mouse never leaves your grain storage chest with a teardrop in his eye, having found it empty.

Third line: may your chimney keep cheerfully smoking till you're old enough to die.

Fourth line: May you indeed be as happy as I wish you now to be.

In this last line, now is pronounced more like noo.

In another version, the third line changes to:

May ye aye keep hale an' he'rty till ye're auld eneuch tae dee.

This translates to May you keep healthy and robust till you're old enough to die.

Many cheers
