The original proverb would be
“Briseann an duchas tri shuile an cait”
Which translates literally as:
“Nature breaks out of the eyes of the cat”.

The sense is that “Nature will out!”.

The “Go m..” at the start is not relevant here - it suggests the proverb was extracted from another sentence.

There are two diacritics missing in my version - I’ve forgotten how to insert them in HTML!

Regards.
