KISWAHILI: KITENDAWILI – TEGA.

BABU UKIMGUSA ANAKUWA PETE – JONGOO.

Kitendawili hicho, huongelea juu ya Jongoo. Jongoo huyo, ni kiumbe ambaye ukumgusa hujivilingisha mpaka anakuwa kama pete ya kuvaa kwenye kidole. Yeye hujificha kwa kujivilingisha hivyo. Ndiyo maana watu husema kwamba, “Babu ukimgusa anakuwa pete – Jongoo.”

Kitendawili hicho, hulinganishwa kwa mtu yule ambaye huwa anazila hata kwa jambo tu, katika maisha yake. Mtu huyo, huzila kwa kukataa hata kula chakula akikosewa hata kwenye jambo doo tu, kwa sababu ya kiburi cha roho yake hiyo ndogo. Yeye huwasumbua kwa huwazunishwa watu, kwa sababu ya kuzila kwake kila anakosewa hata kidogo tu, maishani mwake.

Mtu huyo, hufanana na lile Jongoo linalojivilingisha kila linapoguswa, kwa sababu naye huzila kila anakosewa hata ikiwa ni kidogo tu, katika maisha yake. Ndiyo maana watu humwambia kwamba, “Babu ukimgusa anakuwa pete – Jongoo.”

Kitendawili hicho, hufundisha watu juu ya kuwa na moyo mkuu wa kuacha tabia ya kuzila, kwa kuvumilia na kusamehe pale wanapokoseana, ili waweze kuzilea vyema familia zao, maishani mwao.

ENGLISH: I HAVE A RIDDLE – LET IT COME.

WHEN YOU TOUCH MY GRANDFATHER BECOMES A RING – MILLIPEDE.

This riddle talks about a millipede. The millipede is a creature that when you touch it, it rolls around until it becomes like a ring that one wears on a finger. It hides itself by putting its head inside enough to make sure that it is safe from enemies. That is why people say that, “when you touch my grandfather becomes a ring – millipede.”

This riddle is compared to the person who becomes easily offended by even small thing. He gets angry to the point of refusing even to eat in his life. This man refuses to eat even though he is offended by something which has no connection with food because of the pride of his little patience. He is tormented by the grief of the people, because of his fasting after being offended by every one even in minor things.

This person resembles to the millipede that rolls around becoming a ring every time when one touches it, because he also refuses eat every time when one offends him even in little things in his life. That is why people say to him, “when you touch my grandfather becomes a ring – millipede.”

This riddle teaches people on how to be courageous enough to persevere difficult in life by forgiving whey they offend one another, so that they can better raise their families in their lives.
