    A sgéal féin, sgéal gach duine

    An té a bhionn in a droch sheirbhíseach do féin bhionn sé 'na sheirbhíseach maith do dhaoine eile

    An rud is giorra don croidhe sé is giorra don bhéal
    An té is mó cainnt sé is lúgha obair
    An cogadh ba mhó ariamh tháinigh duine slán as

    An té a bhuailfeadh mo madhadh bhuialfeadh sé mé féin

    Ag diol meala is ag ceannacht milseán
    An áit in a mbionn na mná bionn cainnt

    An fear nach n-iomcharann a cóta lá tirim ní bhionn sé aige lá fliuch

    An seód is do-fhághala sé is luachmara
    An té a buailtear sa gceann bhíonn faitchíos air
    An rud a goilleann ar an gcroidhe caitheann an é a shílt
    An duine is lugha eolais sé is mó labhruigheas
