I don't know if you are right to be filled with envy because being filled with envy could turn you blue.
But if you are really filled with envy, you are right to say it. Correct!
Wouldn't you tell us whom you are envying.

I wish you to get filled with joy.

There is an English idiom which is:

"I am green with envy"

and it basically means "to be filled with envy". But I have never heard of the "filled" version.

Regards!
