All Proverbs

ለእኔ እናት ምን ደላት ያም አፈር ያም ድንጋይ ጫነባት

✦

“What good did my mother get? Both soil and stone covered her.”

Meaning

This proverb reflects on the ultimate fate of all human beings: death and burial. It questions the lasting value of life's experiences, struggles, or joys, as the final outcome for everyone is to be covered by soil and stone. It conveys a sense of resignation or reminds one of mortality, suggesting that worldly pursuits, material gains, or even suffering eventually culminate in the same end, rendering them insignificant in the face of death. It is used to express the transience of life and the universal fate of all creatures.

ይህ ብሂል የሰው ልጅ የመጨረሻ እጣ ፈንታ ሞትና ቀብር መሆኑን ይገልጻል። ምንም እንኳ በህይወት ዘመን ብዙ መልካም ወይም አስቸጋሪ ነገሮች ቢያጋጥሙም፣ መጨረሻው በአፈርና በድንጋይ መሸፈን ነው። ምድራዊ ተድላዎች፣ ስኬቶች ወይም ችግሮች በመጨረሻ ከሞት ጋር ሲነፃፀሩ ትርጉም የለሽ መሆናቸውን ያስገነዝባል። የህይወትን ጊዜያዊነት እና የመጨረሻውን የሁሉም ፍጡር እጣ ፈንታ ለመግለፅ ይጠቅማል።
