Nepalis are very religious unlike Japanese people so we use "God" directly or indirectly while giving blessings. The most frequently used sentence (exactly equivalent to "May god bless you") is -
》भगवानले तपाईलाई आशिर्वाद देऊन् ।

your try:
"हजुरको सँधै भलो हवस् l" 》I wish you good.

Some other shorter and simple phrases used are:
1. "भाग्यमानी भव ।" when you are blessing someone younger than you (both male and female).

2. "सौभाग्यवती भव ।" only for females.

{EDIT :
The reason why सौभाग्यवती भव is used only for female is that the word "सौभाग्यवती" is feminine, whereas "भाग्यमानी" is unisex.}

I suggest not to use/say "saubhaagyawati bhawa/hunu". some feminist person might get unhappy.
because the literal of "saubhaagyawati vawa/hunu" is "never become widow in your life".

@hibatas you mistook hindi phrase "sada suhagan raho" for "सौभाग्यवती भव ".
"Sada suhagan raho" means "may you never get widowed "

Let's look at the word सौभाग्यवती:
सौभाग्य + वती = सौभाग्यवती
सौभाग्य = Good luck

सौभाग्यवती = someone having good luck (feminine)

So
सौभाग्यवती भव means Always be lucky or May the luck be on your side. In Nepali society, good fortune / luck is related to God's blessing.
Hence, सौभाग्यवती भव 》 May you be blessed.

@hibatas also the word भाग्यमानी has nothing to do with feminist. You are mistaking one word for another.
भाग्यमानी = One having good luck ; blessed

@hibatas Thanks for your answer. Yeah, I choose words considering my ideas about gender equality. Your pointing is helpful. I always want to be careful with delicate expressions.
