    Ceallacán fada agus easbadh na mbróg a dheineann
    sean-duine críona den búachaill óg.
    Is mór taiseach an adharca na mbó thar-lear.
    Ar scáth a chéile maireann na daoine.
    Níor chaill fear na misnaig riamh.
    Níor bris focal maith fiacal riamh.
    Is fearr aon cat scaoilte ná dhá cat ceangailte.
    Bean mhic is mátair céile cat is luch ar agaidh a céile.
    Cad a dheineann mach an cait ach luch a mharbughadh.
    Uain no t-aoide ní fhannain le h-aoinne.
    Dá mbeadh fios agat bheidh leigheas agat.
    Deineann bhúachaill óg díomhaoin sean duine láidir.
    Coinín sa poll agus a ceann amac.
    Dá mbeadh cuiginn ag an gcat badh minic a phus ann go minich.
    An áit in a bíonn gé bíonn ganndal agus an áit in a
    bhíonn bean bíonn clampar ann.
    Leath-bidh agus leat-teine lá le bríghdhe.
    Ní bíonn an rádh acht mar a mbíonn an smacht.
    Is dóig le fear na buille gurbh é féin fear na céile
    Tóg uaim é agus gan uaimeac é
    Tóg bean as an gleann agus ná cuir aon bean ann.
