    Ní gnáthach iasc ag iascairí daoimhíne
    Is minic nár cuaidh bó le bó duthcais
    Is mairig a thabharfhadh droc mheas don óige
    Is minic a dheineann bramithín gioblach capaillín trioplach
    Ní raibh mór riamh ná go mbeadh beag
    Bíonn an rath in dhiaidh an ceistnibh
    Mar a leagtar a crann is ann a bhí cisneaca
    Is fearr cur déanach na ceanach luath
    Fliucann fear an taon caoire a bhrath
    Is mor an truagh fear croidhe mór i mbaile mór gan airgead
    Is giorra dhuit do comharsain ná do mhúíntir féín
    Do bainfeadh an saoghal go léir toradh as bean mínáíre ach an té go mbíonn sí aige
    Is fearr buaille seasc na buaille folamh
    Is olc an cú nách fiú fead leigint uirthe
