All Proverbs

ዶሮ እኔ ባልበላው ጭሬ አላፈሰውም ወይ አለች

✦

“The chicken said, 'If I don't eat it, won't I scratch and scatter it?'”

Meaning

This proverb illustrates a destructive or spiteful attitude where an individual, unable to benefit from something themselves, chooses to spoil or destroy it so that no one else can benefit either. It reflects a narrow-minded perspective that prioritizes preventing others' gain over preserving value when one's own direct benefit is absent.

ይህ ብሂል አንድ ሰው ራሱ ሊጠቀምበት ያልቻለውን ነገር ለሌላም ሰው እንዳይሆን የማበላሸት ወይም የማጥፋት ዝንባሌን ያሳያል። የሌሎችን ጥቅም የማያስተውል፣ የራስ ጥቅም ብቻ ሲቀር ነገሮችን የማበላሸት አስተሳሰብን ይገልጻል።
