    Ní h-é lá na gaoithe lá na scolb ná lá na tuille lá na réabadh
    Moladh beirte na Faille Móire an té is trise beith in uactair
    Ní bíonn an dá eagla ríámh ar aenne
    Ní gabhtar tig gan teanga
    Is deacair capall ráis a dhéanamh do asal
    Is olc an gaoth ná séideann go maith go dhuine éigin
    Tagann an breághthacht in diaidh na stoirmeac
    Ní raibh buan tréan ríamh
    Imtheochaidh an bó leis an bhfaill ach fanfaidh an breall ar an mnaoi
    An rud a bailightear go boct imthigeann sé go h-olc

    Coming events cast their shadows afore
    Wilful wast makes woeful want
    One Mass is better before death than two after
    An hour in the morning is better than two after
    He who despairs is lost
