    Rud beag dearg a bhí ag fás ar cran, chonnaic beirt e: bhain cúigear é, cheangail daréag é agus leig ain duine amháin sian é.
    Ubhall
    Bíonn sé sa mhóinfhéar agus ní baintear é.
    Bíonn sé sa t-siopa agus ní díoltar é.
    Solus na gréine.
    Chím é agus ní fheiceann tisa é, agus is giorra duit é ná dom-sa
    Cúl do chinn
    Chím chugam trí an sruith
    Fear gan éadach, fear gan chrios,
    Fear na coise caoile cruaidhe,
    Mo thruagh mhó an t-uan gan rith.
    An Mactíre agus an t-uan.
