Proverbs from Lacay


Sonje lapli ki leve mayi ou.
Remember the rain that made your corn grow.

Moun pa se dra.
A protector is like a cloak.

Nan tan grangou patat pa gen po .
In times of famine, sweet potatoes have no skin.

Ou konn kouri, ou pa konn kache.
You know how to run, but you don’t know how to hide.

Se bon kè krapo ki fè l san tèt.
It is because the toad is too kindhearted that he has no intelligence.
