KISWAHILI: WAMEKUACHA WENZAKO UTAENDA NA NANI?

Msemo huo, huongelea juu ya kuachwa kwa mtu mmoja na wenzake waliokuwa katika safari. Safari hiyo, ilikuwa ya watu watatu ambao walipita kwenye familia moja kwa ajili ya kupata chakula kwa sababu walikuwa na njaa sana.

Lakini basi, walipotaka kuondoka mmoja wao alijisahau mpaka wenzake wakamuacha kwa sababu ya kujisahau kwake huko. Ndiyo maana watu wa kwenye familia hiyo walimuuliza kwamba, “wamekuacha wenzako utaenda na nani?”

Msemo huo, hulinganishwa kwa mtu yule ambaye hujisahau kuzitekeleza kazi zake kwa kujali kazi zingine mpaka anachelewa kuzimaliza kazi hizo, katika maisha yake. Mtu huyo, huenda kufanya kazi na kuchelewa kuzitekeleza kwa kuanza kuongelea mambo mengine, kwa sababu ya kujisahau kwake huko. Yeye hushindwa kuzimaliza kazi zake vizuri kwa sababu ya kujali mambo mengi Zaidi kuliko kazi zake hizo, maishani mwake.

Mtu huyo, hufanana na yule aliyejisahau mpaka akaachwa na wenzake katika safari hiyo, kwa sababu naye hupoteza muda wa kufanya kazi kwa kujali mambo mengine, maishani mwake. Ndiyo maana watu humuuliza kwamba, “wamekuacha wenzako utaenda na nani?”

Msemo huo, hufundisha watu juu ya kujali kazi zao kwa kuzitekeleza vizuri, badala ya kufuata mambo mengine katika maisha yao, ili waweze kupata mafanikio mengi zaidi, maishani mwao.

ENGLISH: YOUR COMPANIONS HAVE LEFT YOU, WHO WILL GO WITH YOU?

This saying talks about an abandonment of one person who left by his companions who were on a journey. The trip was for three people who went to a family to get food because they were very hungry.

But then, when they wanted to leave, one of them forgot his trip by doing other things until his colleagues left him because of his doing of other things instead of traveling. That is why the people of that family asked him that, “your companions have left you, who will go with you?”

This saying is compared to the person who forgets to do his work by caring about other things until he is late to finish his required work in his life. Such person goes to work late by starting to talk about other things, because of his self-forgetfulness. He fails to complete his tasks well because of caring about other things instead of doing his tasks in his life.

This person resembles the one who forgot himself by doing other things until he was left by his companions on the journey, because he also loses time of work by caring about other things in his life. That is why people ask him that, “your companions have left you, who will go with you?”

This saying teaches people about taking care of their works by doing them well, instead of following other things in their lives, so that they can get more success in their lives.

KISWAHILI: KABULA YEYE NI MLEA YATIMA.

Chanzo cha msemo huo chaangalia mvua. Mvua hiyo huleta furaha kwa viumbe kwa sababu huotesha mbegu za wakuliwa na kuotesha nyazi pia na kuvikuza viumbe. Yenyewe huleta hali ya kijani katika uso wa Dunia. Ndiyo maana watu husema kwamba, “Kabula yeye ni mlea yatima.”

Msemo huo, hulinganishwa kwa mtu yule ambaye huwasaidia watu wenye matatizo katika maisha yake.

Yeye huwaletea furaha watu wengi anaowasaidia katika kuyatatua vizuri matatizo yao, kwa sababu ya uwezo wake huo, maishani mwake.

Mtu huyo, hufanana na ile Mvua iletayo maji ya kuvitunzia viumbe, kwa sababu naye huwasaidia watu katika kuyatatua matatizo yao vizuri, maishani mwake. Ndiyo maana watu humwambia kwamba, “Kabula yeye ni mlea yatima.”

ENGLISH: KABULA IS THE CARETAKER OF THE ORPHANS.

The foundation of this saying looks at the rain. This rain brings happiness to creatures because it grows edible seeds and also grows grass for them. It brings greenness to the face of the Earth. That is why people say that, “Kabula is the caretaker of the orphans.”

He brings happiness to many people whom he helps in solving their problems, because of using well his ability in his life.

This person is similar to the Rain that brings water for taking care of creatures, because he also helps people in solving their problems in his life. That is why people tell him that, “Kabula is the caretaker of the orphans.”

MTU KICHWA NGUMU HAPA NYUMBANI AMETUSHINDA SISI – NYUKI.

Chanzo cha kitendawili hicho, chaangalia maisha ya nyuki. Nyuki hao huingia na kuishi kwenye nyumba za watu wale ambao huwaruhusi kwa sababu ya kuwafikiria kuwa ni ndugu zao. Lakini siku wamekasirika huwauma hata mpaka kuwaua kabisa baadhi ya watu hao waishio kwenye nyumba hiyo. Ndiyo maana watu husema kwamba, “mtu kichwa ngumu hapa nyumbani ametushinda sisi – Nyuki.”

Kitendawili hicho, hulinganishwa kwa mtu yule ambaye huwa kimya lakini ndani ya moyo wake anahasira kali, katika maisha yake. Mtu huyo, huishi pamoja na wenzake katika utekelezaji wa majukumu yao, ambaye akichokozwa kidogo tu hukasirika na kuanza kuwapiga watu wale anaoishi nao kwa sababu ya hasira yake hiyo kali. Yeye huwaumiza watu wengi wale wanaoishi naye, kwa sababu ya kiburi na hasira zake hiyo kali, maishani mwake.

Mtu huyo, hufanana na wale nyuki waliokasirika na kuanza kuwauma watu wa kwenye familia ya pale walipo, kwa sababu naye pia huchokozwa kidogo tu na kuanza kuwapiga watu anaoishi nao. Ndiyo maana watu humwambia kwamba, “mtu kichwa ngumu hapa nyumbani ametushinda sisi – Nyuki.”

Kitendawili hiyo, hufundisha watu juu ya kuishi vizuri na watu kwa kuachana na hasira zisizo na maana katika maisha yao, ili waweze kusaidiana katika kuyatekeleza vizuri majukumu yao, maishani mwao.

ENGLISH: I HAVE A RIDDLE – LET IT COME.

A STUBBORN PERSON WHO HAS DEFEATED US AT HOME – BEE.

The origin of this paradox looks at the life of bees. The bees enter and live in houses of people who allow them because they think that they are their relatives. But when they are angry, they bite them until they completely kill some of the people who stay in that house. That is why people say that, “a stubborn person who has defeated us at home – bee.”

This paradox is compared to the person who stays silent but in his heart he is very angry, in his life. Such person lives with his colleagues in the execution of their duties, who if provoked just in a little matter gets angry and starts beating people whom he lives with because of his strong anger. He hurts many people who live with him, because of his pride and strong anger, in his life.

This person resembles the bees that got angry and started stinging the people who live in that family where they are, because he is also provoked just in a little matter and starts hitting people whom he lives with. That is why people tell him that, “a stubborn person who has defeated us at home – bee.”

This riddle teaches people on how to live well with people by letting go of unnecessary anger in their lives, so that they can help each other in carrying out their responsibilities well, in their lives.

He gets a lot of success in his family because of his hard working mentality in his life.

ENGLISH: I HAVE A RIDDLE – LET IT COME.

WE ARE TWO BIG PEOPLE IN THE WILDERNESS – THE SUN AND THE MOON.

The overhead riddle talks about the presence of the Sun and the Moon that help each other to work. The Sun and the Moon are both large objects that work to illuminate the world in exchange. The Sun begins at Day and the Moon shines at night. So they are all great things in the eyes of people. That is why people tell stories to each other saying, “We are two big people in the wilderness – the Sun and the Moon.”

This paradox is compared to married people who live well in their marriage. These people, cooperate well enough to raise their children by providing them with good upbringing that can give to them a light of living well with others in their lives, because of their good cooperation. They raise their children in a good upbringing because they themselves live those good values in their lives.

These people are like the Sun and the Moon which help each other well in enlightening those who live on earth, because they also help each other well in bringing up their children in good values, in their lives. That is why they say that, “We are two big people in the wilderness – the Sun and the Moon.”

This riddle teaches married couples to cooperate well in raising their children in good morals, so that they can live in peace with others in their lives.
