Language / Baby blessing for Polish female baby [7]
I am looking for a Polish blessing for a couple having a female baby. I have read, and understand that it is traditionally not done in Poland as it is considered bad luck. What I am trying to do is make my own card for them to give at our church's Polish Festival. I have already drawn the Polish Eagle (instead of a stork) carrying the baby in a blanket. Here in the United States, we would normally write something like "Congratulations! It's a girl." or "Congratulations on your newborn baby."
So, if anyone could help me with something more traditional in Poland (and a translation as what it means) it would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you.
