    Fear beag i na sheasamh le claidhe,
    Theann sé gach rud a bhfághann sé acht ní ólann sé uisce :
    (Teine)
    Chuaidh mé suas an bóithrin,
    Casadh mo mháthair dom,
    Bhí srón iarainn uirthi
    Agus méaracha airgid.
    Is í chuirfeadh ruaig ar na préacháin.
    (Gunna)
    Ceist a chuir tuatha ar sagart
    agus b'eigean don Easbog é réidhteach
    "Driothár bhí ag driothár d'athar
    Agus mór uncal duit-se
    An té sin.
    (D'athair)
    Céard é an droichead is lugha sa domhan.
    (Droichead do Sróna)

    do chuileóig cé dhéanfadh culaith do dubhán alla?
    (An Tailliúr)
