KISWAHILI: ANA UGONJWA WA MACHO.

Mtu mwenye ugonjwa wa macho huwa na macho mekundu. Mtu huyo, hutoa uchafu mweupe machoni kwenye macho yake kwa sababu ya kuuma kwa macho hayo. Yeye hukosa raha mpaka mwishowe wenzake humtafutia njia za kumsaidia ili aweze kupona haraka. Ndiyo maana wao husema kwamba, “ana ugonjwa wa macho.”

Msemo huo hulinganishwa kwa mtu yule ambaye huwaonea huruma wagonjwa kwa kuwasaidia, katika maisha yake. Mtu huyo, huwahurumia wagonjwa hao kwa kutafuta njia za kuwasaidia ili waweze kupona haraka kwa sababu ya huruma yake hiyo, maishani mwake. Yeye huwasaidia wagonjwa hao mpaka wanapona haraka kwa kuwapeleka hospitalini, kwa sababu ya huruma yake hiyo, katika maisha yake.

Mtu huyo, hufanana na wale waliotafuta njia za kumsaidia yule mgonjwa wa macho, kwa sababu naye huwasaidia wagonjwa kwa kuwapeleka kwenye matibabu mpaka wanapona haraka, maishani mwake. Ndiyo maana humwelezea mjonjwa kwamba, “ana ugonjwa wa macho.”

Msemo huo, hufundisha watu juu kuwa na huruma ya kuwasaidia wagonjwa wao ili waweze kupona haraka, katika maisha yao.

ENGLISH: HE HAS AN EYE DISEASE.

There was person who had an eye disease in a certain village. His eyes became red. He produced white discharge from his eyes because of pain which he felt from them. He was uncomfortable until finally his colleagues found ways of supporting him so that he could recover quickly. That is why they said that, “he has an eye disease.”

This saying is equaled to a person who feels compassion for sick people enough to assist them in his life. This person feels sympathy for those who face various hitches by finding ways of supporting them so that they can recover quickly because of his kindness in his life. He supports the sick ones until they recover quickly by taking them to the hospital, because of his compassion in life.

This person is similar to those who found ways of supporting the eye patient, because he also aids sick persons by taking them to treatment until they recover quickly in his life. That is why he describes the patient that, “he has an eye disease.”

This saying imparts in individuals an idea of having compassion which enable them to support their patients so that they can recover quickly in their lives.

KISWAHILI: UMEPITISHWA KOONI.

Msemo huo huongelea juu ya mtu aliyechelewa kufika kwenye chakula mpaga akakuta wenzake wamekula. Mtu huyo, alipokuta wenzake wamekwisha kula kwa sababu ya kuchelewa kwake wapishi waliamua kumpikia chakula kingine. Ndiyo maana watu walimwambia kwamba, “umepitishwa kooni.”

Msemo huo, hulinganishwa kwa mtu yule ambaye ana ukarimu wa kuwatunza vizuri watu, katika maisha yake. Mtu huyo, huwatunza watu wake hao pamoja na wageni wake kwa kuwapikia chakula, kwa sababu ya ukarimu wake huo, maishani mwake. Yeye hupata baraka za kuishi na watu wengi kwa furaha katika familia yake hiyo, kwa sababu ya ukarimu wake huo, katika maisha yake hayo.

ENGLISH: IT HAS BEEN PASSED THROUGH AN ESOPHAGUS.

This proverb talks about a person who arrived late to a meal and found that his companions had already eaten. When he found that his companions had already eaten because of his delay, the cooks decided to cook another meal for him. That is why people said to him that, “it has been passed through an esophagus.”

This proverb is matched to the one who is generous in taking decent care of people in his life. This person takes care of his people as well as guests by cooking food for them, because of his generosity. He gets blessings of living happily with several populaces in his family, because of his generosity in his life.

KISWAHILI: IMEANGUKA BAHATI.

Msemo huo, huangalia mifugo waliochungia kwenye hazina ya nyasi nyingi ambazo hawajachungua mifugo hata mara moja. Mifugo hao, walipofika kwenye nyasi hizo nyingi, walijibidisha kula kwa furaha kwa sababu walikuwa wana njaa ya kukosa chakula kwa muda wa siku nyingi. Ndiyo maana watu walisema kwamba, “imeanguka bahati.”

Msemo huo, hulinganishwa kwa mtu yule aliye na njaa akapata chakula kingi katika maisha yake. Mtu huyo, hupata chakula hicho na kujibidisha kula kwa nguvu sana kwa sababu ya kukaa bila kula kwa muda mrefu, maishani mwake. Yeye hula chakula alichokipata mpaka anakimaliza, kwa sababu ya kukaa muda mrefu bila ya kula chakula, katika maisha yake.

Mtu huyo, hufanana na wale mifugo waliokuwa na njaa kwa muda mrefu wakapata nyasi na kujibidisha kuzila mpaka wakazimaliza, kwa sababu naye hupata chakula akiwa na njaa na kukila mpaka akakimaliza, maishani mwake. Ndiyo maana watu humwambia kwamba, “imenguka bahati.”

Msemo huo, hufundisha watu juu ya kuwa na umakini wa kukitunza vizuri chakula wanachokipata ili kiweze kuwasaidia katika siku zao za mbeleni, maishani mwao.

This proverb refers to cattle that grazed in a treasure of a lot of grasses which they have never grazed before. When these cattle reached those grasses they happily ate it all because they were hungry for not having eaten for several days. That is why people said that, “luck has fallen.”

This proverb is equated to a hungry man one who finds a lot of food in his life. This person finds food and forces himself to eat very hard because of not eating for a long time in his life. He eats such food until he finishes it because of being hungry for a long time in his life.

KISWAHILI: VITA IMEKUA KUBWA NIUZE NG’OMBE.

Hapo zamani alikuwepo mtu mmoja aliyekuwa tajiri wa mifugo. Mifugo hao waliokuwa pamoja na kuku, mbuzi, kondoo, na ng’ombe. Tajiri huyo alikuwa akiuza kuku au mbuzi akipata shida ndogo katika familia yake ili apate hela ya kuyatatulia kwa sababu ya umakini wake huo, katika maisha yake.

Lakini basi, siku moja tajiri huyo alipata tatizo kubwa lililohitaji kuuza mfugo mkubwa kama ng’ombe ili kupata pesa za kulitatulia. Yeye aliamua kuunza ng’ombe kwa sababu ya kutaka aishinde haraka vita hiyo. Ndiyo maana alisema kwamba, “vita imekua kubwa niuze ng’ombe.”

Methali hiyo, hulinganishwa kwa tajiri yule ambaye huzitumia vizuri mali zake katika maisha yake. Tajiri huyo, huzitunza vizuri mali zake hizo ili ziweze kumsaidia kuyamaliza haraka matatizo yatakayojitokeza kwenye familia yake hiyo, kwa sababu ya umakini wake huo, maishani mwake. Yeye huzitumia vizuri mali zake hizo mpaka anayamaliza haraka matatizo yanayojitokeza kwenye familia yake hiyo, kwa sababu ya umakini wake huo, katika maisha yake hayo.

Tajiri huyo, hufanana na yule aliyeuza ng’ombe alipopata tatizo kubwa mpaka akapata hela zilizomuwezesha kulitatua haraka, kwa sababu naye huzitumia mali zake kwa kuyatatua matatizo yanayoikumba familia yake hiyo mpaka anayamaliza haraka kwa sababu ya umakini wake huo, maishani mwake. Ndiyo maana yeye husema kwamba, “vita imekua kubwa niuze ng’ombe.”

Methali hiyo, hufundisha watu juu ya kuwa na umakini wa kuzitunza vizuri mali zao ili ziweze kuwasaidia katika kuyatatua haraka matatizo yatakayozikumba familia zao, maishani mwao.

ENGLISH: THE WAR HAS BECOME BIG, LET ME SELL THE COW.

Once upon a time, there was a man who was rich in domesticated animals. These animals included chickens, goats, sheep, and cows. He used to sell chickens or goats when he had minor hitches in his family for getting money which can solve them because of his thoughtfulness in his life.

But then, one day such rich man had an enormous difficult that required selling a large animal like a cow for getting enough money to solve it. He decided to bring a cow because he wanted to win the war quickly. That is why he said, “the war has become big, let me sell the cow.”

This proverb is related to a rich man who uses his wealth well in his life. This rich man takes upright care of his wealth so that it can support him quickly in solving hitches that will arise in his family, because of his responsiveness in his life. He uses his wealth well until he quickly solves the glitches which arise in his family, because of his thoughtfulness in his life.

This rich man resembles the one who sold his cow when he encountered a big delinquent until he got the money that enabled him to solve it quickly, because he also uses his wealth to solve the hitches which befall his family until he quickly solves them.That is why he says that, “the war has become big, let me sell the cow.”

This proverb imparts in individuals an idea of being so attentive enough to take decent care of their wealth so that they can support them in quickly solving glitches which will befall their families in their lives.
