XHOSA PROVERBS-

AMAQHALO

Isikhova sidla ngeso laso, esimehl' ankungu sifa yindlala-
An owl eats its eye,the one with misty eyes dies of hunger-

Ithemba alibulali,kubulala ubungxamo-
Hope never kills,but rushing things does-

Isiqhelo siyayoyisa ingqondo-
Habit defeats the mind-

Ukukhula kukubona-
Growing is seeing-

Inkomo isengwa ngoyaziyo-
A cow is milked by the one who knows it-

Ulunya lubuz' olunye-
One act of evil begets another-

Neqaqa liyagquma kowalo umngxuma-
Even a skunk roars in its hole-

Amadoda akafani,afana ngeentshebe kuphela-
Men are not the same,they are only the same by their beards-
