ካለቀ መቆጠብ ከመሽ መንጠብጠብ

✦

“To save after it's finished is like dripping at night.”

Meaning

This proverb suggests that saving or regretting something after it's already gone or finished is futile. It's like trying to water plants at night when the sun is gone and it's less effective (or pointless if the damage is already done). The 'dripping at night' implies a wasted effort.

ይህ ብሂል አንድ ነገር ካለቀ በኋላ መቆጠብ ወይም መጸጸት ምንም ፋይዳ እንደሌለው ያመለክታል። ልክ ማታ ማታ ውሃ ማጠጣት ምንም እንደማይፈይደው።
