    ....as a bhlaiseadh is fearr é
    Chuirfeadh sé an dubh 'na gheal ort
    Ní hé an datamhalact a chuireann an corcán ag fiucadh
    Is minich a bhionn uan dubh ag caora bán
    Mair capall agus geobhair féir
    Más peacaidh bheith buidhe, tá na mílte damanta
    Sgeal o Shamhain go Bealtaine
    An té nár craidh, craidhfear é
    Gaol madra Una le madra Anna
    Más sia leat do saoghal suidh ar cloch
    Bionn clúás bodhar ar fear na foghla
    Is breagh an rud suidhe act baineann an sineadh an bárr de
    Comhairle tar éis posadh agus aitrighe tar éis bháis
    Is fearr bheasa ná breaghthact
    Ní thuigeann sathach seang
    Ná bi ag cainnt leis na cosa an fhaid is atá ceann agat
    Tá a theanga in a phocha aige
    Deanfhadh se cat agus dá eirball
    Cuirfheadh sé cosa maide fe's na cearcaibh
    Glor leomhain agus croidhe lom
    Deatac mor as teine beag
    Seachan an duine ná labhrann puinn
    Bionn an siubhaltac sgéaltac
    Ni ceileann meische rún
    Sceidheann fion an firinne

    D'olfhadh sé an sop as an spathar
    Baineann an druncaer an dion dá thig féin agus cuireann sé ar tig an tabhairne é
