    gheobhaidh cos ar shiubhal rud nach bhfuigh cos na comhnaidhe mur mbéadh ann ach dealg
    Ma's críonna an madadh ruadh beirfidhe air 'san deireadh
    Ar mhaithe leis féin a ghnídheas cat crónán
    Na caith a t-uisge salach amach go dtig an t-uisge glan isteach
    Is beag teaglaigh nach mbíonn caora dhubh ortha
    Is maith an rúd a mharieas i gcomhnaidhe
    Nuair a dhóigheas tú an coinneál dóigh an t-orlach
    Muna gcuireann tú 'san earrach ní bhaineann tú 'san fhoghmhar
    Is iomdha madadh beag a bhíonn ruball fada air
    Cha bhíonn fhios agat maitheas an uisge go racaidh an tobar tirim
    Ní thainig an duine un t-saoghail ariamh nar chuir Dia biadh leobhtha
    Níl neart ar an bhás ach posadh arais
