negro yanzu a birnin kano kake ? mahaifiyata bakano ce

Yanzu ina kasan Amurka. Iyaye na daga Iko suke amma sun yi zama a Kano.

In nafayince ka kace iyayenka yanzu a lagos suke ko ?

Kwarai! Baba na ya rasu amma mama na ta na nan a Ikko.

Allah ya raba mu daga sherin dan adam.
Abuzola da negro, ina fata kuna na nan lafiya?

Dan allah ina ne zan samu hausa film na say a lagos ko abuja?
na zo aiki a lagos a yanzu.
walahi ina missing weina a nan
Dan Allah kuyi temoko

Allah ya hada yan arewa. Amin.

Abuzola:

Idan kunne yagi to jiki ya tsira: meaning when the ear hears the body is safe

Hmmm, the way I translate this proverb is with "ya" being a command as in

If the ear has heard, the body should be careful.

Ko min nisan Jifa kasa zai dawo - No matter how far a stone is thrown it's still going to come back to the ground.

Idan ka ga gemun abonkinka ya kama wuta ka zuba wa naka ruwa - If you see your friend's beard on fire pour water on yours.

Abun da babba ya hango, yaro ko ya hau Dala da Gauron dutse ba zai hango ba - What a grown up has seen, even if a kid climbs the rocks of Dala and Goron Dutse (highest peaks in Kano) he/she won't see it.

Bakin ciki ba bakon uwar barawo bane
Agony is not a new concept to the mother of a thief.

I guess there are 2 types of proverbs in the Hausa language. The more structured one (as I have posted above) and the 2 part ones the ones that have two phrases. One suggesting the situation and the other predicting the outcome. Usually occurs in a dialogue where one person says the first part and the other person completes the sentence

e.g.

Aikin Banza - Harara a duhu
What a waste of time - Eyeing a person in the dark

Aikin Banza - Kiba a kunne
What a waste - Growing fat on the ears

Na shiga ban dauka ba - ba ya fidda barawo
I wen't in but I didn't steal anything! - Doesn't acquit a renowned thief

, Rashin Hakuri - Kamar Zawo
, So impatient - Like waterry diarrhoea

Abu mai sauki - fidda wando ta kai
It's Easy - Like removing trousers through your head


More to come. Welldone to the people posting, na karu sosai a nan faggen.

Sarauniya sanda kokari


Mayar da ruwa rigiya ba barna bane meaning; Go and return nthe water into the well doesn"t spoil it or isn"t a catastrophe

Makaho wai baya san ido, ido wari meaning A blind man said he doesn"t want an eye because it stinks {saboda ba shi da ido} This is because he doesn"t have eye

Da dan gari akan ci gari Meaning it is with an inhabitant you conspire to conquer a territory

Weell done Abuzola . a little correction. Babbar magana Dansanda ya ga gawar soja. , meaning - "Big talk! as policeman see soldier corpse." (not abin mamaki)

Sarauniya you said "more to come" where are they. Amma dai Rashin Hakuri shi ya kawo - "me aka shuka?"

Kowa na gudun shiga ruwa amma agwagwa ciki take kwana-

Hassada taki ce -meaning- jealousy is a fertilizer

Abin mamaki agwagwa da kin ruwa
Abin mamaki,kura na kin nama

Ruwa bata tsami banza_ water can't get sour just like that

Kowa ya bar gida, gida ya barshi. Meaning, he who left home, home left him. English equivalent. There's no place like home.

@ Abuzola. Point of correction . (Hassada taki ce, jealous is ferlizer) The proverb is : Hassada ga mai rabo taki ne. Means To the luckiest sabotage is a fertizer. Thanks
