• ခါခ်ဥ္ေကာင္မာန္ႀကီးလို႕ ေတာင္ႀကီးၿဖဳိမည္ႀကံ၊ ခါးက မသန္
  • An imperious red ant who would've torn down the mountain but for his bad back.
  • ေက်ာပူမွ ၀မ္းေအး
  • Only when your back burns will your hunger pangs be cooled.
  • လက္လႈပ္မွ ပါးစပ္လႈပ္ရမည္
  • Only when your hands work shall your jaws work.
  • ႂကြက္ေသတစ္ခု အရင္းၿပဳ
  • Turn a dead rat to profit.
  • တစ္ခါေသဖူး ပ်ဥ္ဖိုးနားလည္
  • Once you have known death, you come to know the price of a coffin.
