Full of gladness and health,
With a pocket full of gold
As the least of you wealth.
May the dreams you hold dearest,
Be those which come true,
The kindness you spread,
Keep returning to you.

My comment:
That’s better than wishing a long life, because we are talking about the quality of life here. And being perfectly healthy is a key to a good life.

My comment:
an old spouse with poor eyesight may miss and shoot you in your delicate parts. That would be worse than dying :) Otherwise, a very wise blessing.
