    Maireann an chraobh ar an bhfál ach ní mhaireann an lámh do chuir.
    Tig i mbeal bhóthair ní haistear é ach cómhngar
    Ní bhionn leigheas ar an gcathú ach é smachtú le foidhne
    An té bhionn tinn ní binn leis aon rud
    Bog daingean mar earball na bó.
    Is fearr maol na droch cheann acht níl ann ach san.
    Dionadóir fliuch, sioladóir tuigh, geamhar i stáca, no feur i mbeal beárnan.
    Inntin mná nó oidhche Foghmhair.
    Ná diol bó mhaol, is na ceannuig bó mhaol,
    Is na bí coidhche gan bó mhaol.
    Mol an cnoc is sean é
    Dí-mhol an choill is taobhaig.
    Lá ar meisge is lá ag ól uisge.
    Lá sa tabhairne is lá sa tsúsa
    Is dhá lá deug ag soláthar chúcha.
    Tart i ndiaidh an óil, is brón i ndiaidh an airgid.
    Luig leis an tslait a lúbfaidh leat.
    Creachadóir tiorach sioladóir fánach
    Fill orm deir an droch gnó.
    Is cuma cómhairle comhngar neamh cionntach no ceir a chur i bpoll gan teinneas.
