KISWAHILI: WASIOSIKIA JUA.

Msemo huo, huongelea juu ya watu wa vibarua. Watu hao, hufanya kazi hata wakati wa jua kali kuanzia asubuhi mpaka jioni kwa sababu ya kutaka kumaliza mapema kipabarua chao. Ndiyo maana watu huwaita kwamba ni watu “wasiosikia jua.”

Msemo huo, hulinganishwa kwa mtu yule ambaye hujibidisha kufanya kazi ngumu mpaka anazimaliza, katika maisha yake. Mtu huyo, hufanya kazi zake kwa nguvu sana kuanzia asubuhi mpaka jioni kwa sababu ya kutaka kuujenga vizuri mji wake. Yeye hupata chakula kingi na mali nyingi kwa sababu ya kujibidisha kwake kufanya kazi zake hiyo, maishani mwake.

Mtu huyo, hufanana na watu wa kibarua waliofanya kazi kutwa nzima bila kujali ukali wa jua, kwa sababu naye hujibidisha kufanya kazi zake kwa nguvu kuanzia asubuhi mpaka jioni, katika utekelezaji wa majukumu yake. Ndiyo maana watu humuita kwamba ni mmoja wa wale “wasiosikia jua.”

Msemo huo, hufundisha watu juu ya kuwa na bidii ya kuyatekeleza vizuri majukumu yao kuanzia asubuhi mpaka jioni, ili waweze kupata mali za kuwasaidia vizuri maishani mwao.

ENGLISH: THOSE WHO DO NOT FEEL THE SUN.

The above saying talks about the people who are paid daily. Those people work even during the hot sun from morning to evening because they want to finish their work early. That is why people consider them as “those who do not feel the Sun.”

This saying is compared to the person who tries to do a hard work until he finishes it, in his life. Such person works very hard from morning to evening because he wants to build his family well. He gets a lot of food and a lot of wealth because of his hard work in his life.

This person is similar to the laborers who worked all day regardless of the intensity of the sun, because he also works hard from morning to evening, in the execution of his duties. That is why people include him in group of “those who do not feel the Sun.”

This saying teaches people being about diligent in carrying out their duties well from morning to evening, so that they can get assets that can nicely help them in their lives.

KISWAHILI: UFUKARA UNALETA BARIDI.

Msemo huo, huongelea juu ya ufuraka wa mtu mmoja. Mtu huyo, aliishi kwa huzuni katika hali ya kukosa nguo za kujifunika kwa sababu ya kukosa hela za kuinunulila nguo hiyo. Ndiyo maana watu husema kwamba, “ufukara unaleta baridi.”

Yeye hukosa hata mavazi yake kwa sababu ya kuitumia pesa yote kwa kuwasomesha na kuwanunulia chakula watu wake hao, katika maisha yake.

Mtu huyo, hufanana na yule aliyekosa nguo ya kujifunika, kwa sababu naye huhangaika katika kuwatunza watu wake, mpaka anafikia hatua ya kukosa hata mavazi yake, katika maisha yake hayo. Ndiyo maana watu humwambia kwamba, “ufukara huleta baridi.”

ENGLISH: POVERTY BRINGS COLD.

The above saying talks about the loneliness of one person. This person lived sadly in a state of lack of clothes for covering himself because of not having money for buying them. That is why people say that, “poverty brings cold.”

This saying is equated to a man who struggles to take care of his family, in his life. This man is always looking for money to educate children and to buy food for his people, because he wants to remove problems from his people, in his life. He lacks even his clothes because of spending all the money to educate and buy food for his people, in his life.

This person resembles the one who lacked clothes for covering himself, because he also struggles to take care of his people, until he reaches the point of not even having his clothes, in his life. That is why people tell him that, “poverty brings cold.”

KISWAHILI: KILIMA SI KICHUGUU.

Chanzo cha msemo huo kilianzia kwenye ulinganishaji wa ukubwa wa mlima na kichuguu. Mlima ni jiwe ambalo limetokea chini kuja juu. Wenyewe huonekana kwa mbali kwa sababu ya urefu wake kutokana na kuumbwa kwake hivyo na Mungu.

Kichuguu ni udongo ulioumbwa na mchwa kutoka chini kuja juu ambacho chaweza kubomolewa kiurahisi tu, ukilinganisha na kilima. Ndiyo maana watu husema kwamba, “kilima si kichuguu.”

Msemo huo, hulinganishwa kwa mtu yule mbaye ni mzazi anayetegemewa na watoto kwa sababu ya kuwasaidia kwake vizuri maishani mwake. Mtu huyo, anazielewa vizuri kazi zake za kuwasaidia watu wake hao juu ya kuishi vizuri na wenzao, kwa sababu ya hekima yake ya kuishi vizuri na watu maishani mwake. Yeye huwakuza watoto wake katika malezi yenye maadili mema kwa sababu ya tabia yake hiyo njema, katika maisha yake.

Mtu huyo, hufanana na mlima ulivyo mrefu kuliko kichuguu, kwa sababu naye anafahamu kuwafundisha watoto namna ya kuishi vizuri kwa vile yeye ni mkubwa kuliko wao. Ndiyo maana watu humuambia kwamba, “kilima si kichuguu.”

Msemo huo, hufundisha wazazi juu ya kuwafundisha watoto wao namna ya kuishi vyema kwa kusaidiana vizuri katika utekelezaji wa majukumu yao, ili waweze kupata mafanikio mengi, maishani mwao.

ENGLISH: A HILL IS NOT AN ANTHILL.

This saying originated from the comparison of a hill and an anthill. A hill is a stone that has come up from the ground. It is visible from a distance because of its height due to its creation by God.

An anthill on the other hand, is soil created by ants from the ground up, which can be demolished easily, compared to a hill. That is why people say that, “a hill is not an anthill.”

This saying is compared to a parent who is trusted by children because of his good support in his life. This person understands well his work enough to help his people in living well with their peers, because of his wisdom that enables him to live well with the people in his life. He raises his children in an upbringing with good morals because of his good character, in his life.

This person is like a hill that is taller than anthill, because he also knows how to teach children ways of living well because of his humility. That is why people tell him that, “a hill is not an anthill.”

This saying teaches parents about on how to upbringing their children for living well by helping each other well in the implementation of their responsibilities, so that they can achieve many successes in their lives.

KISWAHILI: HUYU HUKUTA YAMEISHA.

Msemo huo, ulianzia kwenye uchelewaji wa mtu aliyealikwa kufika kwenye maongezi. Alikuwepo mtu mmoja ambaye alialikwa kwenda kuongea na watu juu ya mwenendo wa kuishi vizuri. Mtu huyo, alichelewa kufika kwenye familia hiyo mpaga mwishowe yale maongezi yakaisha ndipo naye akafika. Ndiyo maana watu walimwambia kwamba, “huyu hukuta yameisha.”

Msemo huo, hulinganishwa kwa mtu yule ambaye huwa hashituki upesi akiambiwa neno, katika masha yake. Mtu huyo, huchelewa kila siku akiambiwa awahi sehemu fulani, atakuta wenzake wamemaliza hata kazi yoyote kwa sababu ya uvivu na kutojali kwake huko, katika maisha yake. Yeye hukosa chakula kila mwaka kwenye familia yake kwa sababu ya uchelewaji wake huo wa kufanya kazi zake, maishani mwake.

Mtu huyo, hufanana na yule aliyechelewa kwenda kwenye maongezi mpaga akakuta wenzake wamemaliza, kwa sababu naye pia huchelewa kufika kule aendako mwishowe hushindwa hata kupata chakula katika maisha yake. Ndiyo maana watu humwambia kwamba, “huyu hukuta yameisha.”

Msemo huo, hufundisha watu juu ya kuwahi kwenda kuyatekeleza majukumu yao kwa kusaidiana na wenzao vizuri, ili waweze kupata maendeleo mengi, maishani mwao.

 ENGLISH: THIS IS THE ONE WHO ARRIVES WHEN EVERYTHING IS OVER.

This saying started from the delay of the person who was invited to give a talk on moral life. There was one person who was invited to go and talk to people about the conduct of living well. Such person was late in arriving at the family until the conversation ended then he also arrived. That is why people told him that, “this is the one who arrives when everything is over.”

This saying is compared to the person who does not easily respond when he is told a word, in his life. Such person becomes late every day when he is told to go to a certain place to the point of finding that his colleagues have finished any work because of his laziness and indifference in his life. He misses food every year in his family because of his delay in doing his work, in his life.

This person resembles the one who is late for a talk when he finds that his colleagues have finished, because he is also late to get to where he is going and in the end he fails to even get food in his life. That is why people tell him that, “this is the one who arrives when everything is over.”

This saying imparts in people an idea on going earlier to carry out their duties by helping each other well, so that they can get a lot of progress in their lives.
