KISWAHILI: GULIO LA KUKU, KUNUNUA NA KUCHINJA NA VIFARANGA WANAONA.

Gulio la kuku ni soko lile ambalo watu huuza na kununua kuku. Kwenye soko hilo wanunuaji wa kuku huwanunua na kuwachinja na vifaranga wakiwa na wanaona, kwa sababu ya kutaka kupata pesa kwa kupika nyama ya kuku na kuiza hapo gulioni. Ndiyo maana watu husema kwamba, “gulio la kuku kununua na kuchinja na vifaranga wanaona.”

Methali hiyo, hulinganishwa kwa watu wale ambao hutenda maovu na mambo ya aibu na watoto wakiwa wanaona, katika maisha yao. Watu hao, hutenda maovu hayo na mambo hayo ya aibu mbele ya watoto wao bila hata ya kuona aibu kwa sababu wanatabia mbaya, maishani mwao. Wao huwafundisha watoto wao tabia ya kutenda maovu kwa sababu ya tabia yao hiyo mbaya ya kutenda mambo ya aibu, mbele ya watoto wao hao, katika maisha yao.

Watu hao hufanana na wale waliochinja kuku na vifaranga wakiwa wanaona, kwa sababu nao hutenda maovu na mambo ya aibu mbele ya watoto wao hao, maishani mwao. Ndiyo maana watu huwaambia kwamba, “gulio la kuku kununua na kuchinja na vifaranga wanaona.”

Methali hiyo, hufundisha wazazi juu ya kuacha tabia ya kutenda mambo ya aibu mbele ya watoto wao, kwa kuishi katika tabia njema, ili waweze kuwapatia malezi mema watoto wao hao, maishani mwao.

ENGLISH: CHICKEN MARKET, TO BUY AND SLAUGHTER WHILE CHICKS ARE WATCHING.

Chicken market is an arcade where people sell and buy chickens. In that arcade, chicken buyers buy and kill them while chicks are watching, because they want to make money by cooking chicken meat and selling it there in the market. That is why people say, “Chicken market, to buy and slaughter while chicks are watching.”

This proverb is related to individuals who do evil deeds by doing shameful acts in front of their children in their lives. These people do those evil deeds shamefully in front of their children without even feeling ashamed because they have wicked manners in their lives. They teach their children practices of doing evil deeds because of their evil conducts of doing shameful deeds in front of their children in their lives.

These people are like those who slaughtered chickens in front of their chicks, because they also commit evil deeds by doing shameful acts in front of their children in their lives. That is why people say to them that, “Chicken market, to buy and slaughter while chicks are watching.”

This proverb teaches parents to stop doing shameful acts in front of their children, by living in virtuous character, so that they can provide their children with worthy upbringings in their lives.
