    An t-úan ag múineadh méidhlighe dá mháthair
    Is olc an cearc na sgríobann dí féin
    Léim choiligh ar charn aoiligh
    Ag ithe is ag ghearnán ar nós cearc guir
    Ní sia gobh an ghé ná gob an ganndail
    Nuair a luigheann gé luighid go léir
    Fearthainn do laogh is gaoth do searrach, uisge do ghé is deirc do bhacach
    Ní'l aon teaglach mar do theaghlach féin
    Ní h-aiteantas go haontigheas
    Cumgrach biadh Cumgrach biadh cumhgrach craoidhe, na trí h-anachraí móra
    Bíonn leachacha sleamhna i dtighthibh daoine uaisle
    Is fuar an teach nach gnáthuigid na fir
    Is teann gach mada arlár a tighe féin
    Níor mhothuigh an sáthach sámh an t-ocrach riamh
    Ní tuigeann an sáthach do'n seang
    Ní féadsta gan rosta
    Ní béíle bídh, biadh gan deoch
    Ní chuimhnightear ar an arán taréis é d'ithe
    Bíonn blas milis ar phráiseach na gcómhursan
