Wherever Burundi points the finger, a house is built. Don’t tell any more fairy tales when the child has gone to sleep. The reception has more value than the invitation. A night without roosters will still end. A mother’s wrath does not survive the night. Without effort no harvest will be abundant. A mother’s behind sins when it sits down. A tree is straightened while it is still young. Too many words blacken your ears.
