KISHAHILI: UTAFUTAJI WA JAMII YA MALAMBO MBUBANI.

Chanzo cha methali hiyo, chaongelea juu ya Lundu ambayo majani ya jamii ya malando ya mbugani. Jamii hiyo ya malambo ni mboga ambayo huota kwenye mbuga. Mtu akipita humo yaweza kumfunga kwenye miguu yake hata kumwangusha chini, kwa sababu ya kufungamana kwake. Ndiyo maana watu huyaita kwamba ni, “utafutaji wa jamii ya malando mbugani.”

Methali hiyo, hulinganishwa kwa mtu yule ambaye hutafuta maneno ya ugonvi kwenye familia za watu, katika maisha yake. Mtu huyo, hutoka kwenye familia yake na kwenda kutafuta maneno hayo kwa kuingia kwenye familia za wenzake na kuwagombanisha kwa sababu ya ukolofi wake huo. Yeye hukosana na wenzake kwa sababu ya utafutaji wake huo wa maneno ya kugombanisha watu, maishani mwake.

Mtu huyo, hufanana na jamii hiyo ya malando yanayofunga miguu ya watu, kwa sababu naye hutafuta maneno ya kugombanishwa watu, katika maisha yake. Ndiyo maana watu humwambia kwamba ana “utafutaji wa jamii ya malando mbugani.”

Methali hiyo, hufundisha watu juu ya kuachana na tabia za kutafuta maneno ya kuchonganisha watu, ili waweze kuishi kwa amani na wenzao, maishani mwao.

ENGLISH: THE SEARCH FOR THE POTATO LEAVES COMMUNITY IN THE PARK.

The foundation of the above proverb speaks of ‘Lundu’ which is a kind of potato leaves. This species is a vegetable that grows in parks. These leaves can bind feet of the person who passes through those parks to the point of pulling him/her down to the ground, because of their tightness. That is why people call it “the search for the potato leaves community in the park.”

This proverb is related to a man who seeks out violent words that disintegrate people’s families, in his life. This man leaves his family, by entering through various families of his fellows and arguing with them because of his cruelty. He continues losing his teammates because of his quest for controversial words, in his life.

This person, in effect, resembles that potato leave community that bound the feet of the person who passed in the parks, because he also seeks out words for quarreling with people, in his life. That is why people tell him that he has “the search for the potato leaves community in the park.”

This proverb instills in people a clue on stopping the habit of looking for words that do away with families of their fellows, so that they can live in peace with each other, in their lives.
