KISWAHILI: YUMO KIFUNGONI.

Msemo huo huangalia mtu aliyekuwa kifunguni kwa sababu ya makosa mbalimbali. Mtu huyo, alifungwa kwa sababu ya uchokozi wake kwa wenzake. Yeye aliwachokoza watu mpaka akakosana nao na kupelekwa jela. Ndiyo maana watu walimwambia kwamba, “yumo kifungoni.”

Msemo huo hulinganishwa kwa mtu mwenye tabia ya kutenda maovu, katika maisha yake. Mtu huyo, hutenda maovu ya kuwakosea haki wenzake mpaka anaivuruga familia yake, kwa sababu ya tabia yake hiyo mbaya, maishani mwake. Yeye hukosana na wenzake mpaka wanaishi bila kusalimiana nao kwa sababu ya tabia yake hiyo ya kutenda maovu, katika maisha yake.

Mtu huyo, hufanana na yule aliyewachokoza wenzake mpaka akafungwa jela, kwa sababu naye huwatendea maovu wenzake mpaka anaivuruga familia yake maishani mwake. Ndiyo maana watu humwambia kwamba, “yumo kifungoni.”

Msemo huo hufundisha watu juu ya kuwa na tabia njema ya kusaidiana vizuri katika kuyatekeleza majukumu yao, ili waweze kuzilea vyema familia zao, maishani mwao.

ENGLISH: HE IS IN JAIL.

This saying refers to a person who has been imprisoned because of various offenses. He was sent to jail because of his aggressive behavior toward others. He provoked his peers repeatedly until he got into serious trouble and was imprisoned. That is why people said of him, “He is in jail.”

This saying is compared to a person who has a habit of doing evil in his life. Such a person wrongs others through his bad behavior until he brings trouble upon himself. Because of his actions, he disrupts his family life and damages relationships with his nobles. Eventually, people avoid greeting him or associating with him because of his behavior.

This person is similar to the one who provoked others and ended up in prison, because both cause harm through their actions and suffer the consequences. That is why people say of him, “He is in jail.”

This saying teaches people the importance of good character and cooperation helping one another and behaving responsibly so that they may live peacefully and raise their families well.

KISWAHILI: LA JUA KUCHWA.

Chanzo cha msemo huo humwangalia mtu aliyefanya kazi yake mpaka akaimaliza. Mtu huyo, aliitekeleza kazi yake hiyo kutwa nzima kwa sababu alitaka kuimaliza haraka. Yeye aliimaliza vizuri kazi yake hiyo kwa sababu ya bidii yake ya kuyatekeleza vizuri majukumu yake kutwa nzima. Ndiyo maana watu walimwambia kwamba ni “la jua kuchwa.”

Msemo huo hulinganishwwa kwa mtu mwenye bidii ya kufanya kazi zake vizuri mpaka anazimaliza, katika maisha yake.

Yeye hupata mafanikio mengi katika familia yake hiyo kwa sababu ya bidii yake ya kuyatekeleza vizuri majukumu yake hayo, katika maisha yake.

Mtu huyo, hufanana na yule aliyeitekeleza vizuri kazi yake mpaka akaimaliza, kwa sababu naye hujibidisha kufanya kazi zake vizuri mpaka anazimaliza, maishani mwake. Ndiyo maana watu humwambia kwamba ni “la jua kuchwa.”

ENGLISH: ALL-SUN-TIME WORKER.

The origin of this saying refers to a person who works continuously until his task is completed. He works throughout the day because he desires to finish his work quickly and properly. Through his diligence and commitment, he completes his duties successfully. Because of this, people describe him as an “all-sun-time worker,” meaning someone who works from morning until the end of the day without giving up.

This saying is matched to a person who is diligent in carrying out his responsibilities in life. Such a person strives to perform his duties faithfully from morning until they are finished. Because of his hard work and perseverance, he achieves great success, especially within his family and daily life.

This person is similar to the worker who completes his task through dedication and endurance. In the same way, he fulfills his responsibilities until the end. That is why people say of him that he is an “all-sun-time worker.”

This saying teaches people the value of diligence, perseverance, and commitment to duty. By working faithfully and consistently, a person can achieve much success in life.

KISWAHILI: KILA MKUBWA ANA MKUBWA WAKE.

Hapo zamani alikuwepo kiongozi wa kijiji kimoja katika utawala wa bhuduhe. Kiongozi huyo, alikuwa akitoa amri kwa watu wake ya kuwaambia watekeleze kile alichokitaka yeye kwa sababu ya ukubwa wake huo. Yeye alienda ugenini akaanza kutoa amri kwenye kijiji ambacho siyo chake, kwa sababu hakuifahamu vizuri mipaka ya kijiji chake. Ndiyo maana watu walimwambia kwamba, “kila mkubwa ana mkubwa wake.”

Msemo huo, hulinganishwa kwa mtu yule ambaye anadharau kwa wenzake ya kuongea maneno bila ya kuwa na mipaka, katika maisha yake. Mtu huyo, huongea maneno yake kwa kuwadharau wenzake katika maongezi yake hayo kwa sababu ya dharau yake hiyo kwa wenzake, maishani mwake. Yeye hukosana na watu wake mara nyingi katika familia yake kwa sababu ya dharau yake hiyo ya kuongea maneno bila kuwa na mipaka, katika maisha yake hayo.

Mtu huyo, hufanana na yule kiongozi asiyeielewa mipaka yake mpaga akatoa amri kwenye kijiji cha mwingine, kwa sababu naye anadharau ya kuongea maneno yake bila ya kuwa na mipaka, maishani mwake. Ndiyo maana watu humwambia kwamba, “kila mkubwa ana mkubwa wake.”

Msemo huo, hufundisha watu juu ya kuwa na umakini wa kuchagua vizuri maneno ya kuongea na watu katika maongezi yao, ili waweze kuzilea vyema familia zao, maishani mwao.

ENGLISH: EVERY BIG HAS HIS BIG.

Once upon a time, there was a village leader in the Bhuduhe administration. Because of his position and authority, he often gave orders to his people, expecting everyone to obey him. One day, he traveled abroad and began giving orders to people in another village that was not under his leadership. He did this because he did not understand the boundaries of his authority. That is why people said to him, “every big has his big.”

This saying is compared to a person who is disrespectful to his peers by speaking without limits in his life. Such a person talks carelessly and despises others through his words. Because of this behavior, he often quarrels with members of his family and community. His problem is not strength or wisdom, but the failure to know when and how to speak with respect.

That person is like the village leader who did not understand his limits and gave orders in another man’s village. In the same way, he speaks as if no one is above him, forgetting that there is always someone greater or wiser. That is why people remind him by saying, “every big has his big.”

This saying teaches people to be careful with their words and to respect boundaries when speaking to others. By choosing the right words and knowing their limits, people can live peacefully and raise their families well in their lives.
