ENGLISH: A LOG KILLED A PATHWAY.

This saying talks about a road blocking of the log. This was the log which is a tree that grew near the path. Such tree fell and blocked the way which people were going through because of its size, so they had to make another way through. That is why those people said that, “a log killed a pathway.”

This saying is related to a person who has an ability to resist evil in his life. Such person raises his children in values of rejecting evil by doing good deeds that help them to live a life of love among themselves, because of his honesty in his life. He brings up his family well by living a life of helping each other well in their daily works, because of his living those good values well, in his life.

KISWAHILI: CHOMBO KINAENDA MRAMA.

Chanzo cha msemo huo huangalia lugha ya wanamaji waendeshao chombo cha majini. Kwenda mrama ni kuendelea na safari katika hali ya misukosuko ambayo chombo hicho huyapata wakati wa dhoruba, mawingu au tufani na kukifanya choncho hicho kiwe hatarini.

Nahodha wake badala ya kusema kwamba chombo kipo katika hali ya hatari hutafuta lugha nyepesi isiyoshitua watu. Ndiyo maana yeye husema kwamba, “chombo kinaenda mrama.”

Msemo huo, hulinganishwa kwa mtu yule ambaye huwaongoza watu vizuri anayefahamu kuwatuliza watu wake hao wakipata jambo fulani katika kazi yake.

Mtu huyo, huwaongeza watu wake vizuri kwa kuongea nao ili asikie mawazo yao kwa sababu anazifahamu faida za kuyatumia mawazo yao hayo mazuri, katika uongozi wake. Yeye huwafariji watu hata katika hali ya misukosuko mbalimbali, kwa sababu ya uaminifu wake huo, maishani mwake.

Mtu huo hufanana na yule aliyewatuliza vizuri watu wake walipokuwa katika misukosuko ya chombo chao hicho cha majini kuzama, kwa sababu naye huwaongoza vizuri watu wake kwa kuwafariji wakati wa matatizo. Ndiyo maana yeye huwaambia watu kwamba, “chombo kinaenda mrama.”

Msemo huo, hufundisha watu juu ya kuwa na unyenyekevu wa kuwafariji wenzao wanaokumbwa na matatizo mbalimbali ya maisha, ili waweze kuishi kwa furaha katika familia zao.

ENGLISH: THE VESSEL HAS LOST ITS DIRECTION.

This saying looks at the language of sailors who operate a water vessel. Going overboard is continuing the journey in the turbulent conditions that the ship experiences during storms, clouds or typhoons and makes the boat vulnerable.

Its captain, instead of saying that the vessel is in danger, looks for a simple language that does not shock people. That is why he says that, “the vessel has lost its direction.”

This saying is compared to the person who leads people well by knowing how to calm his them if they find something difficult in their works.

Such person leads his people well by talking to them so that he can hear their thoughts because he knows the benefits of using their good thoughts in his leadership. He comforts them even in the midst of various troubles, because of his faithfulness in his life.

This person is similar to the one who calmed his people well when they were in the turmoil of their sinking ship, because he also leads his people well by comforting them in times of trouble. That is why he tells them that, “the vessel has lost its direction.”

This saying teaches people on how to have humility that can comfort their nobles who are suffering from various problems in life, so that they can live happily in their families.
