KISWAHILI: HAO WAPEPETAJI.

Msemo huo, huongelea juu ya watu waliokuwa wakipepeta mahindi. Watu hao walikuwa wakiya ondoa makapi yote kutoka kwenye chakula chao hicho kwa kuyapepeta hayo mahindi mpaka takataka zote zinaisha ndani yake kwa sababu yalikuwa na uchafu mwingi sana. Ndio maana watu waliwaambia kwamba, “hao wapepetaji.”

Msemo huo, hulinganishwa kwa watu wale ambao hukijali vizuri chakula wanachopewa na Mungu. Watu wao hukiondolea takataka zote zilizomo kwenye nafaka zao mpaga chakula hicho kinakuwa kizuri kwa sababu ya umakini wao huo katika maisha yao. Wao hupata chakula kingi sana katika famlia kwa sababu ya kukitunza vizuri, katika utumishi wao.

These people remove all the garbage from their grains and the food becomes good because of their attention in their lives. They get a lot of food in their family because of taking good care of it, in their service.

These people are like those who sifted their corns until all the garbage were gone, because they also remove all the garbage from their food. That is why people call them that, “those are winders.”

ENGLISH: I HAVE A RIDDLE – LET IT COME.

IS THE FAMILY STRENGTHENED BY HOW MANY PEOPLE? – TWO.

The overhead puzzle looks at a strengthening of a family of two people. This is family of a husband and wife who discuss together until they understand and agree on how to build it well. These people refuse to be deceived by anyone who disrupts people’s families. That is why they ask that “Is the family strengthened by how many people? – two.”

This paradox is related to married couples who understand each other well in their lives. These people make their plans well and nicely agree on the implementation of their family responsibilities because they love each other very much. They strengthen their family by raising their children well because of their good values in their lives.

Those people, are similar to those who are married and have strengthened their family well, because they also discuss well until they agree on raising their people, in their lives. That is why they ask their people that, “Is the family strengthened by how many people? – two.”

This riddle teaches married couples to have a loving understanding enough to carry out their duties well, so that they can nicely raise their families, in their lives.

KISWAHILI: MIMI NIMEFYONZWA FISI NIKIWA NAENDA.

Methali hiyo ilianzia kwa mtu yule aliwaachisha fisi mfugo waliokuwa wameukamata. Fisi hao huishi polini wakati wa mchana lakini usiku huingia kwenye makazi ya watu ili kujitafutia chakula.

Fisi hao walimkamata mfugo kwa bahati akaja akapita pale mtu aliyekuwa katika safari zake akawanyanhanya mfuyo huo ndipo wakaanza kumfronza yeye akiwa anaenda bila kuwajali. Ndiyo maana yeye alisema kwamba, “mimi nimefyonzwa fisi nikiwa naenda.”

Methali hiyo hulinganishwa kwa mtu yule ambaye hudharauliwa na baadhi ya watu anapoanza kufanya kazi mpya katika utumishi wake. Mtu huyo, hujibidisha kufanya kazi kwa nguvu bila kuwajali wale wanaomdharau kwa sababu anazifahamu faida za kazi hiyo maishani mwake. Yeye hupata mafakinikio mengi mpaga wanaacha kumdharau wale waliokuwa wakifanya hivyo mwanzoni kwa sababu ya uvumilivu wake huo, katika utekelezaji wa majukumu yake hayo.

ENGLISH: I HAVE BEEN ABSORBED BY HYENAS WHILE I GO.

The above proverb was originated from man who chased hyenas from taking his livestock which they had caught. The hyenas live in the field during the day but at night they enter human settlements to find food.

The hyenas caught the herd by chance and he came and passed by a man who was on his travels and snatched the livestock from them and they started to chase him while he was going without paying attention to them. That is why he said that, “I have been absorbed by hyenas while I go.”

This proverb is compared to that person who is despised by some people when he starts a new job in his service. That person, tries to work hard without caring about those who look down on him because he knows the benefits of that work in his life. He achieves a lot of success and they stop looking down on those who were doing it in the beginning because of his patience, in the implementation of his duties.

This person is similar to the one who was absorbed by hyenas without caring for them, because he also has to carry out his duties without caring for those who despise him, in his service. That is why he tells people that, “I have been absorbed by hyenas while I go.”

Mtu huyo alijaribu kumkamua huyo Nyati ambaye alimkurupusha mwanadamu huyo mpaga karibu ya kumuua kwa sababu ya uthubutu wake huo wa kujaribu hata kile kinachozidi uwezo wake. Ndiyo maana watu walimshangaa kwa kumwambia kwamba, “mtu mkubwa anamkamua nyati!”

Mtu huyo, huanza kufanya kazi zake bila kufikiria vizuri kwanza kabla hajaanza kuzitekeleza kwa sababu ya kujidai kwake kuwa na nguvu. Yeye hushindwa kuzimaliza kazi zake kwa sababu ya kuanza kuzitekeleza kwake huko bila kufikiria vizuri kwanza, maishani mwake.

There were men who entered their mother’s room in which they were prohibited. After entering, they found their mother naked because she did not know that they would enter in. When they saw her, they were confused until they started harming her because of what they did. That is why people told them that, “they are completely cursed.”

This saying is compared to people who do not care about instructions of their parents, in their lives. Those people are proud by despising their superiors who warn them because of their pride. They consequently get many problems in their families because of breaking instructions which given to them by their parents, in their lives.
