    Ni'l brígh ná tábhacht in a chuid cainnte
    Ghlan siad an teach o' bhun bearra go guír
    guír = rud a fhásas ar chloic nó ádhmad tar éis tamaill fhada

    Ní'l cainnt ná iarrtáil aige (?)
    = ní cuirtear suim ann
    Tá mé mo libín báidhte
    = fluich go craiceann

    Ní'l ubh no eireog aice = ní'l na cearca maithe aice
    Ní raibh call ná riachtanas
