እኔ ሳጣ ልጄ ጥርስ አወጣ

ትርጉም

This proverb expresses a poignant irony and the burden of compounding problems. It means that just when a person (the parent) is already struggling or facing a shortage ('When I lacked'), a new, often significant, demand or need arises from their dependents ('my child grew teeth,' symbolizing the need for solid food and increased expenses). It highlights how difficulties can accumulate and exacerbate a precarious situation at the worst possible time.

ይህ ምሳሌ አንድ ሰው ራሱ በሚቸገርበት ወይም በሚጎድልበት ጊዜ፣ ሌላ አዲስ ሸክም ወይም ፍላጎት መከሰቱን ያሳያል። ወላጅ በችግር ውስጥ እያለ ልጅ ጥርስ ማውጣቱ (ተጨማሪ ምግብ መፈለጉ) የችግር መደራረብን ይገልጻል።
