    Droichead ar loch gan maide gan cloch. (leac-oidhre).
    Fear beag ina seasamh le claidhe, itheann sé gach a bhfághann sé ach ní ólann sé uisge. (Teine)
    Corcán óir agus é lan de feóil beo. (Méaracán)
    Céard a theigheas suas sa teach agus é bun os cionn. (Tairgne in do bhróig)
    Cómh h-árd le balla
    Cómh bán le bainne
    Cómh dearg le fuil
    Cómh milis le mill (Ubhall)

    Go gcuirimid a cheann ann
    (Peann)
