What is the Polish work for "Lucky" or "Blessed"?
My dad is 100 % Polish... I want to get a new tattoo... I was thinking of "blessed" since I am very blessed in life... but don't want the typical Chinese lettering. .. thought Polish would be a nice tribute to him...
Whoops, that should be "WorD" not Work.... Thanks!!

a few remarks:
Błogi means blissful; szczęśliwy happy, not lucky; fortunny is a dated words referring to events, not people. If you want Lucky, you could try szczęściara, but that's practically unpronounceable for anyone west of Oder;-)
Important: for feminine endings, choose "a", not "i" or "y" - e.g. błogosławiona.
Final: remark: Poles never - AFAIK - use phrases such as "blessed" to refer to their existence. You might try some religious - albeit very subtle - stuff, such as "pod Twoją opiekę" - which is asking Virgin Mary for protection;->
