    Iomháigh an bháis an codlad
    An laógh itthe i mbolg na bó
    Lá ar meisge agus lá ag ól uisge
    Bfhearr liom mo bhéal a bheith briste ná bréagach
    Níl groidh dá mhéid nach dtagann fuath dá réir
    Luigh leis an uan agus eirigh leis an ngréin

    Tagann lá na cáirde agus ní maithtear na fiacha
    Is beo cailleach gan iasg ach ní beo i gan arán
    Is fearr marcaidheacht ar gabhair ná coisigeacht ar fheabhas
    Ní cruaidhe na cloca glasa ná na láimhe follamh
