   • 1812, Antonio Benito Fandiño, A Casamenteira:

     Ai tontiño, porque iñoras

     o qu’he mantér casa e vida,

     que por ben que estea sortida,

     hai faltas a todas horas.

     O segundo, que teu pai

     pensa com’home de ben,

     e así por vergonza ten

     unha nora que non trai.

     Orasme, sobr’esto hai,

     que a dous parizós que teña,

     non tendes donde vos veña,

     cando ela non colla un mal.

     Oh, silly, because you don't know

     what it is to keep house and life,

     no matter how well stocked it is,

     there's lack at all hours.

     Second, your father

     thinks like a good man,

     and to his shame he has

     a daughter-in-law who doesn't bear.

     However, on this matter,

     with just two childbirths that she has,

     you'll be left resourceless,

     and that if she doesn't get sick.
