    is fuarasta fuineadh inaice an míne
    Na díol do ceart lá fluich
    An té nach stríoc na maidhne nífadh do eith na maidhne ni caoradh sé a ceann leath.
    Niór dubhairt galár fada breagh ariamh
    Ag gabhail leis an snagh
    (1) Aon don mi-adh
    (2) Do don adh
    (3) Tri don meidir
    (4) Ceatair don cradh
    (5) cuigh don airgeadh
    (6) Sé don oir.
    (7) seact don run faoi cluidh go deo.
    A rolling stone gathers no moss.
    Never look for a needle in a bundle of straw.
    United we stand and divided we fall.
    Handsome is who handsome does
    Abhor that which is evil.
