KISWAHILI: NURU UNIHIFADHI KUOLEWA KWA WATU WA NASSA.

Chanzo cha methali hiyo, chatokea kwenye ugumu wa kuolewa wa watu wa Nassa. Watu hao wa Nassa, suala la kuolewa lilikuwa gumu sana hapo zamani. Kumbe basi, mtu akipata bahati ya kuolewa au kuoa, ali mshukuru yule aletaye mwanga ambaye ni Mungu, kwa kumwezesha kulikamilisha jambo hilo. Ndiyo maana watu walisema kwamba, ‘nuru unihifadhi kuolewa kwa watu wa Nassa.’

Methali hiyo, hulinganishwa kwa mtu yule ambaye humuomba Mungu akitaka kufanya kazi fulani, zikiwemo zile za kupata mchumba aliye mwema, maishani mwake. Mtu huyo, humuomba Mungu kwa sababu Huyo ndiye anayifahamu mioyo ya watu wote. Kwa hiyo, Mungu aweza kumpatia mtu huyo, bahati ya kuimaliza vizuri kazi yake hiyo, na kwa mafanikio makubwa.

Mtu huyo, akifanikiwa vizuri kwenye kazi zake, humshukuru Mungu, kama wale watu wa Nassa wanavyomshukuru Yeye kwa kuwawezesha kufunga ndoa, au kupata jambo walilolimba kwakwe, kwa sababu naye, humshukuru Mungu anapoikamilisha kazi yake, aliyomuomba.

Yeye huwafundisha wenzake juu ya kumuomba Mungu kabla ya kutekeleza kazi au jambo fulani, na kumshukuru Yeye wanapofanikiwa kulitekeleza jambo hilo. Ndiyo maana watu hao, husema kwamba, ‘nuru unihifadhi kuolewa kwa watu wa Nassa.’

Methali hiyo, hufundisha watu juu ya kumuomba Mungu kabla ya kulitekeleza jambo wanalokata kulifanya, na kumshukuru Yeye wanapolikamisha, ili waweze kupata mafanikio mengi, maishani mwao.

ENGLISH: GETTING MARRIAGE FOR THE NASSA PEOPLE NEED GOD’S GRACE.

The source of this saying is the Nassa people and how they struggle to get married. In the past, it was very difficult for people coming from a place called Nassa to get married. Much as they were struggling to get partners for marriage, it was not easy to accomplish the marriage mission. If one of them managed to get married then she/he was considered to be blessed.

This saying can be compared to a person who prays to God for a specific help, including getting a good and life-long bride. This person knows the power of God and therefore entrusts Him his/her needs with hope that they will be resolved and with great success. This person, like the Nassa people, is thankful to God because He enables him/her fulfill his/her ambitions. He/she teaches other people about the power of prayers and respect to God in order to have a successful life.

This proverb teaches people to pray to God before doing what they want to do. They also need to thank Him when they have accomplished it. When they do so, they can have good achievements in their societies.
