KISWAHILI: HUKO NGILI BABA WA NG’WAMBI

Chanzo cha methali hiyo chaangalia wanandoa ambao husaidiana katika kufanya kazi zao. Watu hao ni mwanamke na mwanaume waliofunga ndoa. Wao husaidiana kuchekecha maziwa. Mwanamke humsukumia mwanaume kibuyu kwenye maziwa hayo, ambacho huzungushiwa kamba iliyohufungwa kwenye mlingoti juu, ili kiweze kuning’inia, naye mwanaume hukisukuma kibuyu hicho kuelekea kwa mwanamke. Kila mmoja amsukumiapo mwenzake husema hivi, ‘huko ngili baba wa Ng’wambi.’

Methali hiyo hulinganishwa kwa wanandoa ambao wana umoja maishani mwao. Watu hao hufanya kazi zao kwa kusaidiana vizuri. Huwafundisha pia majirani zao namna ya kuishi katika umoja huo, katika maisha yao.

Methali hiyo hufundisha watu wa ndoa juu ya kuwa na umoja wa kuwawezesha kusaidiana katika kutekeleza majukumu yao ya kila siku, maishani mwao.

THERE IS NGILI; THE FATHER OF NG’WAMBI.

This saying is based on couples that help each other in their daily activities. It pictures a hanging calabash with little milk in it being tied to one of the roof poles. The wife and husband push it (the calabash) to each other in an attempt to shake the milk. Each of them pushes it by saying, ‘there is Ngili, the father of Ng’wambi.’

This saying can be comparable to married couples who live in unity throughout their lives. They work together by helping each other in viarious activities. They also teach their neighbours on how to live in peace, and unity in their lives. That is why they say to each other, ‘there is Ngili; the father of Ng’wambi.’

The saying teaches married couples how to maintain their unity by living in peace so as to fulfill their tasks of taking care of their families.
