    An té nach bhfuil láidir caithfidh sé bheith glic
    An rud nach dtugtar as gheobhthar ann
    Na tabhair do breith ar an chead sgéal go
    mbeirfhidh tú ar an dara sgéal.
    Muna gcuiridh tú ‘san Earrach ní bhainidh tú ‘san Fhóghmhar.
    Nuair is mó an sport is coir stad de.
    Ba mhinic bhris béal duine a shrón
    Ritheann uisge domhain go ciúin
    Nodlaig ghlas -- roilig mhéith
    Is glas na cnuic i bhfad uainn, acht mas glas ní féarmhar.
    Tá na sean - fhocla ag muinntear na háite seo go coitcheannta.
