KISWAHILI: HIVI NI VYA SHAMBANI.

Walikuwepo watu waliolima mashamba ya mtama na mahindi wakati wa masika. Watu hao, waliyatunza vizuri mashamba yao hayo mpaka wakapata mtama mwingi na mahindi mengi, kwa sababu ya bidii yao hiyo ya kufanya kazi. Wao walifurahi sana walipoyapata mazao hayo ya chakula kwa sababu ya kutumia nguvu nyingi katika kuyatunza mashamba yao hayo. Ndiyo maana walipoanza kuyala mazao hayo, walisema kwamba, “hivi ni vya shambani.”

 Msemo huo, hulinganishwa kwa watu wale ambao hufanya kazi nyingi na kupata vitu vingi, katika maisha yao. Watu hao, hujibidisha kufanya kazi nyingi mpaga wanazimaliza vizuri, kwa sababu ya bidii yao hiyo ya kufanya kazi. Wao hufurahi sana wanapoanza kuyatumia mazao yao hayo waliyoyapata, kwa sababu ya kupata mavuno mengi, maishani mwao.

Watu hao, hufanana na wale waliofurahi baada ya kupata mtama na mahindi, kwa sababu nao hufurahi wanapopata mazao yao hayo kutoka kwenye kazi zao hizo. Ndiyo maana wao husema kwamba, “hivi ni vya shambani.”

Msemo huo, hufundisha watu juu ya kujibidisha kufanya kazi zao mpaka wanazimaliza vizuri, ili waweze kupata mazao mengi, maishani mwao.

ENGLISH: THESE ARE FROM THE FARM.

There were people who cultivated millet and corn fields during the spring. Those people took good care of their fields until they got a lot of both millet and corns, because of their hard working activities. They were very happy when they got those food crops because of spending a lot of energy in taking care of their fields. That is why when they started eating those crops, they said that, “these are from the farm.”

This saying is compared to people who do a lot of works and get a lot of things, in their lives. Those people do a lot of works enough to finish them well, because of their hard working situation. They are very happy when they start using their crops that they got, because of getting a lot of harvests in their lives.

Those people are like those who were happy after getting millet and corns, because they are also happy when they get their crops from their works. That is why they say that, “these are from the farm.”

This saying teaches people about working hard in doing their works until they finish them well, so that they can get a lot of crops, in their lives.

KISWAHILI: HAYO NI MABAKI YA MHAMAJI.

Chanzo cha msemo huo, huongelea mabaki ya mtu aliyehama kwenda kuishi kwenye kijiji kingine. Mtu huyo, alihama akawaachia vitu baadhi ya watu kwa sababu ya upendo wake kwao. Ndiyo maana watu hao walisema kwamba, “hayo ni mabaki ya mhamaji.”

Msemo huo, hulinganishwa kwa mtu yule ambaye huwaachia malezi mema watu anaoishi nao, katika maisha yake. Mtu huyo, huutumia muda wake kwa kuwafundisha maadili ya kufanya kazi kwa bidii, na kuishi na watu vizuri, kwa sababu ya unyofu wake huo. Yeye huwazoesha watu waishio kwenye familia yake kuyaishi maadili hayo ya kufanya kazi vizuri, na kuishi kwa amani na wenzao, kwa sababu ya unyofu wake huo, maishani mwake.

Mtu huyo, hufanana na yule mhamaji aliyewaachia vitu wapendwa wake, kwa sababu naye huwaachia malezi mema watu wake, katika maisha yake. Ndiyo maana watu huwaambia watu wake hao kwamba, “hayo ni mabaki ya mhamaji.”

Msemo huo, hufundisha watu juu ya kuwaachia malezi mema watu wanaoishi nao, ili waweze kuzilea vizuri familia zao, maishani mwao.

KISWAHILI: HUYO AMEKUWA MAARUFU.

Mtu maarufu ni yule aliyesifika kwenye kijiji chake. Alikuwepo mtu aliyekuwa manju katika kijiji cha Sanjo. Mtu huyo, alisifika sana kwa sababu ya uwezo wake huo wa kucheza ngoma za jadi. Ndiyo maana watu wa kijijini mwake walisema kwamba, “huyo amekuwa maarufu.”

Yeye huiendeleza vizuri familia yake kwa sababu ya kuvitumia vizuri vipaji alivyopewa na Mungu, maishani mwake.
