KISWAHILI: HESHIMA HIYO NI KANZU NZITO.

Heshima ni mzigo wa kuheshimiwa na watu inayotokana na mafanikio yake mtu huyo. Alikuwepo mtu mmoja aliyekuwa tajiri wa vitu vingi. Mtu huyo, alisifika sana kwa sababu ya mafanikio yake hayo ya mali, katika maisha yake.

Utajiri wake huo, ulifananishwa na kanzu nzito ambayo huweza hata kumsumbua mvaaji wake. Ndiyo maana watu walimwambia kwamba, “heshima hiyo ni kanzu nzito.”

Methali hiyo, hulinganishwa kwa mtu yule ambaye hujibidisha kuyatekeleza vizuri majukumu yake mpaga anapata mali nyingi, katika maisha yake. Mtu huyo, hulima mashamba makubwa ambayo humpatia mali za kutosha kumsaidia katika maisha yake. Yeye hupata heshima kwa watu kwa sababu ya mafanikio yake hayo, maishani mwake.

ENGLISH: THAT HONOR IS A HEAVY COAT.

Respect is a responsibility to be respected by the people that is based on the person’s success. There was one man who was rich in many things. This man was well-known for his material achievements.

His wealth, however, was likened to a heavy coat that could even irritate his wearer. That is why people said to him, “that honor is a heavy coat.”

This proverb is equated to a man who strives to live his life in a way that pleases him. This man cultivates large plots of land that provide him with enough resources to support himself. He earns the respect of the people because of his success, in his life.

This man is like the rich man who was respected by the people for his wealth, because he also strives to carry out his duties, which give him wealth that brings honor to his people. That is why people say to him, “that honor is a heavy coat.”

This proverb teaches people about working hard in doing their jobs well, so that they can have resources to help them develop their families, in their lives.
