    bíonn teas.
    An áit a mbíonn leanbh bionn leisge.
    Is dearthar de'n sac an malá 'is deartar de'n deabhail an báile.
    Ná ceannuigh malá úr le sean mala a coireadh.
    Fear siubhalta béid sé sgéalta.
    Nuair a beas an fear ag fas béidh an capall ag faghail bhais.
    Na ceannuigh muc i mala.
    Is minic a bhris beál duine a srón
    Is deise cabhair Dé na cabhair an doras
    Ceannuigh séan rud agus béid gan aon rud
    Éist le fuaim na h-abhna agus geobhaidh tú breach.
    Is iomda duine a brisead slat a buaileas é féin.
    Má cuireann tú culaith shioda ar gabar is gabar i gcomhnuidhe
    Nuair a béas an cat amuigh bíonn na luchoghaí ag rince.
    Ní bris focal maith fiacail ariamh
