    Aithnigheann ciaróg, ciaróg eile.
    Céard a dhéanfad mac an cait ach luch a mharbhuigheadh
    Nuair a chríonnas an t-slat is eacair [?] a sníomh.
    Is glas iad na snuic i bhfad uainn.
    An té nach gcúireann san Earrach ní bhainfidh sé san bhfoghmhar.
    Is dána gach mada ag a ddhoras fein.
    Is námhaid an ceird gan i a fhóghluim.
    Síleann gach cearc go bhfuil a sicín géin geal.
    Is fearr éan amháin sa láimh ná dá cheann ar throm.
    Ní thagann ciall roimh aois.
    Tosach maith leath na h-oibre.
    Marbh ag tae agus marbh gan é.
    Nuair a bhíos an t-ól istigh bíonn an chiall amuigh.
    Is fearr dhá cloigeann ná ceann amhain.
