KISWAHILI: NG’WA GILYA ALIILA NDEGE.

Methali hiyo, humuongela ndege aitwaye Nh’ondo. Ndege huyo huwa haliwi. Lakini Ng’wa Gilya alimla kwa sababu ya njaa yake. Ndiyo maana watu walisema kwamba, “Ng’wa Gilya aliila ndege “nh’ondo.”

Methali hiyo, hulinganishwa kwa mtu yule ambaye huyavunja maagizo ya Mungu, katika maisha yake. Mtu huyo huishi kwa kufanya anachotaka mwenyewe bila kuyashika maagizo ya Mungu, kwa sababu ya kiburi chake hicho. Yeye hushindwa kuilea vizuri familia yake kwa sababu ya kuyavunja maagizo hayo ya Mungu, maishani mwake.

Mtu huyo, hufanana na Ng’wana Gilya aliyemla Ndege asiyeliwa, kwa sababu naye huishi kwa kuyavunja maagizo ya Mungu, katika maisha yake. Ndiyo maana watu humwambia kwamba, “Ng’wa Gilya aliila ndege “nh’ondo.”

Methali hiyo, hufundisha watu juu ya kuyashika maagizo ya Mungu maishani mwao, ili waweze kupata Baraka za kuishi vizuri na kufika Mbinguni baada ya kuaga dunia.

ENGLISH: NG’WA GILYA ATE THE BIRD ‘NH’ONDO.’

The above proverb speaks about a bird that is known as Nh’ondo. This bird is never eaten. But Ng’wa Gilya ate it because of his hunger. That is why people said that, “Ng’wa Gilya ate the bird ‘nh’ondo.’”

This proverb is equated to a person who breaks commandments of God, in his life. Such person lives by doing what he wants without keeping the instructions of God, because of his pride. He fails to properly raise his family members because of breaking those orders of God, in his life.

This person resembles Ng’wana Gilya who ate a bird that was never eaten, because he also lives by breaking God’s instructions in his life. That is why people tell him that, “Ng’wa Gilya ate the bird ‘nh’ondo.’”

This proverb instills in people an idea about keeping God’s instructions in their lives, so that they can get Blessings of living well enough to reach the Heavenly kingdom after passing away.
