The Kamnara of Sakwa are making ground to build for future generations

Greetings from the Kamnara of Sakwa! The Kamnara people of Sakwa on 27th December 2024 gathered at Village Park, Ajigo (near Bondo).

Saying #18

- Vwiko vwum'murugu -

Vwiko - relationship, relative
Vwum'murugu - of the leg

Vandu va kare sivamoromaa kuri vakarunu mba. Vavisaa mang'ana mumang'ana. Sivenyaa chavavoraa, kari nicharaa kirahi kevoreke havuravu. Rimoroma siriaraa rihingana neritavatava ria kororaa madiku gano mba. Nivavoraa vwiko vwum'murugu vamanyaa chavavoraa vene.

Murugu gwayuma, muvasu guvari ku urarora negong'ereng'ana. Mundu nayaga ku namasanda ararora risamuka riagwo. Vandu vanyingi sivasuviraa virenge viveye nigasi mba. Mavaroraaza viveeho kogenda. Avarema ivo vamanya vurahi vwivirenge.

Rugano yiru rwavorwaa nu mundu yasinywa. Mundu namuteva, 'vuyu numurinovo, sindamanyaa aravora mang'ana mavi kwivi', ma avorerwanji avora, 'vurina vwum'murugu'. Gavee kovora si nivurina vuhindiraa mba. Murara aziraa undi hasi, amumoromeraa madamanu, sivakonyanaa, vaveye nuvusigu mugati. Kari viko vavee ndio.

Unyara kumanya mundu mukonyi korondekana na shiakonyaa wacho, namuvorera marahi, namuruta, namusarira vurahi. Vwenivu vurahi vuhindiraa. Vandu mavavora, vayanzana kuri mweri gwayanza vudiku.
