KISWAHILI: NG’OMBE WALIACHA LUTUBA.

Methali hiyo, yaanganlia uachaji wa lutuba wa ng’ombe ambao waliishi zizini kwa muda mrefu. Lutuba hiyo, ni kinyesi cha ng’ombe ambacho huendelea kuongezeka ndani ya zizi hilo kwa kadiri ng’ombe hao wanavyozidi kuishi humo.

Ng’ombe hao, hukiongeza kinyesi hicho wanapojisaidia wakiwa ndani ya zizi hilo, mpaka mwishowe wanaacha lutuba wanapohama. Sehemu hiyo, huweza kuivisha vizuri mazao mbalimbali yanayopandwa hapo. Ndiyo maana watu husema kwamba, “ng’ombe waliacha lutuba.”

Methali hiyo, hulinganishwa kwa watu walioishi kwenye kijiji fulani mpaka wakaondoka humo wakiwa wamefahamika kwa watu wengi. Watu hao, waliishi kwa kuelewana vizuri na watu wa kijiji hicho, kwa sababu ya namna walivyosaidiana nao katika utekelejaji wa majukumu yao. Wao walifahamika sana kwa wanajiji hao, kwa sababu ya kuishi kwa amani nao, katika maisha yao.

Watu hao, hufanana na wale ng’ombe walioacha lutuba ya kusitawisha mazao vizuri, kwa sababu nao, waliacha mfano mzuri wa kuigwa na wana kijiji hao, katika kuyaishi maadiri mema. Ndiyo maana watu waliwapatia jina la “ng’ombe waliacha lutuba.”

Methali hiyo, hufundisha watu juu ya kuishi kwa amani na wenzao katika vijiji vyao, ili waweze kusaidiana vizuri katika kuyatekeleza majukumu yao, maishani mwao.

ENGLISH: COWS LEFT FERTILITY.

The above proverb focuses on a fertile soil that has been left by cattle which lived in the barn for a long time. This fertile soil is known as cow dung manure that continues to grow in that cowshed as the cows continue to live there.

These cows add their stool to that soil as they defecate inside the barn, until they finally stop doing so when they move. In that part of the land, you can make the most of variety of crops which are grown there. That is why people say, “cows left fertility.”

This proverb is likened to people who lived in a certain village until they became well known by many people who stayed with them. These people lived in harmony with the people of that village, because of the way they assisted them in carrying out their duties. They became very well-known to the villagers, because of their peaceful coexistence with them, throughout their lives.

These people are like the cows that left the fertile soil enough to produce good crops, because they, too, set a good example for the villagers, in living a good life. That is why people say to them, “cows left fertility.”

This proverb teaches people on how to live in peace with their neighbors in their villages, so that they can help each other better in carrying out their daily responsibilities in their lives.
