“ ഒല്ലി = പുതപ്പു; ഒളിച്ചു വയറ്റിൽ ഉണ്ടാകും, വെളിച്ചത്തുപെറും”
English Translation:
Conceived in dark secrecy, but delivered in the open light. (Gloss notes that “Olli” means a blanket or covering; hidden misdeeds cannot stay concealed forever, as their consequences eventually emerge before the world.)

“ പശുകുത്തുമ്പോൾ മർമ്മം നോക്കരുതു”
English Translation:
When a cow gores you, do not check whether it struck a vital pressure point. (When a loved one or patron turns hostile, any strike wounds deeply; in sudden attacks, one cannot afford fastidious complaints.)

“ മോങ്ങാൻ (മുഴങ്ങാൻ) നിൽക്കുന്ന നായിന്റെ തലയിൽ തേങ്ങാ പറിച്ചിട്ടാലൊ(വീണാലൊ)”
English Translation:
What if a plucked coconut drops squarely on the head of a dog already poised to howl? (Giving a convenient, ready-made provocation to someone who was already itching to complain, wail, or stir up a row.)
