KISWAHILI: AMEPITISHA MKANDA WA NGOZI.

Msemo huo, huongelea juu ya uegemeaji wa upande mmoja wa mtu aliyekuwa na mitala. Mtu huyo, alikuwa na wake wawili ambao alishindwa kujigawa katika kuwahudumia kwa sababu aliegemea kwa mke mmoja tu na kumtelekeza yule mwingine. Ndiyo maana watu walisema kwamba, “amepitisha mkanda wa ngozi.”

Msemo huo, hulinganishwa kwa mtu yule ambaye huanzisha kazi nyingi kwa wakati mmoja, katika kazi zake. Mtu huyo, huanzisha miradi mingi ambayo huwa hana uwezo wa kuitekeleza yote kwa wakati huyo mmoja na yuko peke yake, katika maisha yake. Yeye huishi katika matatizo ya kukosa mali kwenye familia yake, kwa sababu ya kushindwa kuimaliza miradi yake hiyo aliyoyianzisha, katika maisha yake.

Mtu huyo, hufanana na yule aliyeoa mitala akaegemea kwa mke mmoja na kumtelekeza yule mwingine, kwa sababu naye huanzisha miradi mingi kwa wakati mmoja na kushindwa kuimaliza, katika utendaji wake. Ndiyo maana watu humwambia kwamba, “amepitisha mkanza wa ngozi.”

Msemo huo hufundisha watu juu ya kuwa na mke mmoja, na kutekeleza kwa umakini kazi moja kwa wakati mmoja, ili waweze kuishi vizuri na kupata mafanikio mengi maishani mwao.

ENGLISH: HE HAS PASSED THE LEATHER BELT.

The above saying refers to the one-sided dependence of a polygamist. Such man, however, had two wives whom he could not afford in order to take care for them because he depended on only one wife and abandoned the other. That is why people said that, “He has passed the leather belt.”

This saying is applied to the person who initiates many tasks at once, in his works. This person, in turn, initiates many projects that he or she is not able to accomplish all at once and is alone, in his or her life. He/she lives in the midst of a lack of property in his family, because of his inability to complete the projects that he started, in life.

This resembles the man who married a polygamist and leaned on one wife and abandoned the other, because he also initiates many projects at the same time and fails to complete them, in his enactment. That is why people said to him that, “He has passed the leather belt.”

This saying imparts in people an idea on having one wife, and seriously implementing one task at a time, so that they can live well enough to achieve more success in their lives.

KISWAHILI: MFALME AMEANGUKA MIGUUNI.

Chanzo cha msemo huo, kilianzia kwa watu waliolima mashamba wakapata chakula kingi sana. Watu hao, walilima mashamba ya mazao mbalimbali ambayo yaliwapatia chakula kingi mpaga wakaanza kukikanyaga kwa miguu yao, kwa sababu ya wingi wake uliowazidi hivyo. Ndiyo maana watu hao walianza kusema kwamba, “mfalme ameanguka miguuni.”

Msemo huo, hulinganishwa kwa mtu yule ambaye hulima mashamba makubwa ya mazao mbalimbali, na kupata chakula kingi, katika maisha yake. Mtu huyo, hujibidisha kulima mazao ya aina mbalimbali kwenye mashamba yake hayo makubwa, ambayo humpatia chakula kingi cha kula na kusaza kwenye familia yake, kwa sababu ya bidii yake hiyo kufanya kazi. Yeye hukusanya mali nyingi sana katika kilimo chake hicho, kwa sababu ya umakini wake mkubwa katika kuyatekeleza vizuri majukumu yake, maishani mwake.

Mali ya mtu huyo, hufanana na chakula kingi walichokipata wale wakulima ambacho walishindwa kukimalima kukila mpaka wakaanza kukikanyaga kwa miguu yao, kwa sababu nazo zimekuwa nyingi sana, mpaka mtu huyo na familia yake, wakashindwa kuzimalima. Ndiyo maana watu hao walisema kwamba, “mfalme ameanguka miguuni.”

Msemo huo, hufundisha watu juu ya kujibidisha kufanya kazi zao kwa bidii kubwa mpaka wafanikiwe kupata mali nyingi, cha kuweza kuyamaliza matatizo ya njaa, katika familia zao.

ENGLISH: THE KING HAS FALLEN ON HIS FEET.

The origin of the above saying started from the people who farmed enough to get a lot of food. They cultivated a variety of crops that provided them with plenty of food to point of starting to trample it underfoot, because of its excessive quantity. That is why the people began to say that, “the king has fallen on his feet.”

This saying is related to a man who cultivates a large farm of crops, and obtains plenty of food, throughout his life. This man, in turn, strives to cultivate a wide variety of crops on his large farm, which provides him with plenty of food to eat for his family, because of his hard working. He accumulates a great deal of wealth in his field, because of his great care in carrying out his duties, in his lifetime.

This man’s property is like the food that the farmers got which they could not finish to use it until they began to trample it with their feet, because he also got so abundant food that his his family could not finish to use it. That is why the people said that, “The king has fallen on his feet.”

This saying teaches people on how to work hard enough to succeed in acquiring more wealth for using in their families, so that they can end hunger problems in their families.
