    baineann sé sa bhFóghmhar

    Sí leath na ceirde an uirlis
    Ní fhághann minic ónóir
    Ba mhinic ciúin cionntac
    Ba mhinic cú mall sona
    Is minic a bhain duine slat a bhuail é féin
    Ba mhinic comhairle maith ag amadán
    Is maith an capall a tharraingeas a chárr féin
    Duine agus a bheasa ní féidir a chuir le chéile
    Is maith an bádóir an té atá ar an dtalamh
    An uair a bhíonn an t-ól istigh bíonn an cíall amuigh
    Is glas iad na cnuic í bhfad uainn agus is féarach
    An rud nach fiú a iarraidh ní fiú a fhághail
    Muna bhfuil agat acht pucaide gabhair bí í lár an aonaigh leis
    Ná cómhair do sicíní go dtagaidh síad amach
    Ní'l tuille dá
