KISWAHILI: NGUVU HUMALIZWA NA ARDHI
Chanzo cha methali hiyo chaangalia nguvu zile zifanyazo kazi. Kazi hata kama zifanyweje haziwezi kumuumiza mfanya kazi, kwa vile zenyewe humaliza nguvu zake kwenye ardhi ile ambayo mfanya kazi yule ayatekelezea majukumu yake. Kwa hiyo basi, nguvu zaweza kumalizwa na ardhi hiyo. Ndiyo maana watu husema kwamba, ‘nguvu humalizwa na ardhi.’
Methali hiyo hulinganishwa kwa watu wale ambao huzitumia vizuri nguvu zao katika kufanya kazi zao za kila siku. Watu hao wanabidii sana katika kufanya kazi zile ziwaleteazo mafanikio maishani mwao. Huwafundisha pia watu wao jinsi ya kuwa na bidii hiyo, kwa sababu waelewa kwamba ‘nguvu humalizwa na ardhi.’
Methali hiyo hufundisha watu juu ya kuongeza bidii ya kufanya kazi zao, ili waweze kupata mafanikio mengi, maishani mwao.

ENGLISH: THE LAND ONLY DRAINS ONE’S PHYSICAL POWER
The source of this proverb is connected to the power that people use during work. Regardless of the work people do, it will not harm them.The land on which one works drains his/her physical power.Thus, the land drains the power of the worker. That is why people say, “the land ony drains one’s physical power.”
The proverb above is likened to those people who make good use of their power in their daily activities. Such people work hard to succeed in their lives. They also teach their people how to be diligent because they know that “the land only drains one’s physical power.”
The proverb teaches people about putting more effort into their daily activities for them to prosper in their lives.
