ንጉስ የሰቀለው አንበሳ የሰበረው

✦

“What the king hung, what the lion broke.”

Meaning

This proverb uses a contrasting image to describe a situation where something established by authority (king) is undone or destroyed by natural, formidable power (lion). It implies that even the most powerful human decrees or creations can be overturned or rendered useless by uncontrollable forces or inherent limitations.
