KISWAHILI: MLIMA MKUBWA HAUKOSI MAKOLONGO

Chanzo ch methali hiyo chatokea kweye muonekano wa Mlima. Mlima huo haukosi kuwa na sehemu za kushuka na kupanda, hata uwe mrefu kiasi gani. Sehemu za kushuka huitwa makolongo au mabonde. Ndiyo maana, watu husema kwamba, ´mlima mkubwa haukosi makolongo.´

Methali hiyo hulinganishwa kwenye maisha ya watu ifananavyo na mlima mkubwa wenye makolongo. Makolongo hayo hufanana na wakati wa matatizo katika maisha ya watu hao. Matatizo hayo hata yawe makubwa kiasi gani, watu hawatakosa njia za kuyatatulia au kuyamaliza. Ndiyo maana, watu husema kwamba, ´mlima mkubwa haukosi makolongo.´

Methali hiyo hufundisha watu juu ya kufarijiana wakati wa matatizo, na kutafuta njia za kuyatatulia matatizo hayo, bila kukata tamaa.

ENGLISH: A HIGH MOUNTAIN IS NOT WITHOUT UPS AND DOWNS

This proverb stems from the nature of mountains. Mountains usually have ups and downs; no matter its height. The downs are called valleys. That is why people say, “a high mountain is not without ups and downs.”

The proverb is likened to people’s life; it has ups and downs just like a high mountain. The downs are similar to time of crisis in the lives of those people. People always find ways to solve the crisis no matter how serious they are. That is why people say, “a high mountain is not without ups and downs.”

The proverb teaches people to comfort one another in times of trouble and help each other in finding ways out of problems.
