– Yorùbá People’s Philosophy on Inordinate Hustling
YORÙBÁ: Ọjọ́ méèló la ó lò l’áyé, tí a ńw’ẹ̀wù irin?
ENGLISH TRANSLATION BY DELE AJAJA: How long do we sojourn on earth that we don steely garments?
CLARIFICATIONS: This epigram counsels people about the futility of unwarranted struggles. It encourages people to work smarter, instead of expending so much power on superfluous endeavors.
