የአባይ ልጅ ኩሬ

✦

“The child of Abay (Blue Nile) is a pond.”

Meaning

It refers to a child or offspring who is significantly less impressive, capable, or successful than their parents. The mighty Abay River producing a mere pond symbolizes a drastic decline in quality or stature across generations.

ትርጉም

የታላቅ ሰው ልጅ ወይም የወላጆቹን ያህል ያልሆነ፣ አቅሙ የወረደ ወይም ዝቅተኛ የሆነን ሰው ለማመልከት ያገለግላል። የአባይ ወንዝ ታላቅ ቢሆንም፣ ልጁ ኩሬ ሆኖ ማለት ነው።
