    (continued from previous page)
    An té is mo caint, sé is lugha obair
    An cogadh ba mhó riamh, thainigh duine slán as
    Ní h-í bhean is áilne is truime ciall
    A sgéal féin, sgéal gach duine
    Is bocht an sagairt nach mbíonn cléireach aige

    An fear nac n-iomcurann a chotha lá tirim ní bhíonn sé aige lá fliuch

    An té nach n-ólann acht uisge ní bhíonn sé ar meisge
    An té nach bhfuil láidir caithfidh sé bheith glich
