Story behind proverb
It is a Tulu language proverb. Recently I have come to know of the story.
Tulu Proverb -
Maami bolladu ponaga marmaal " maami, elle kaande ari et, bayyag et pand pole " incha pandalge.
ಮಾಮಿ ಬೊಲ್ಲಡ್ ಪೋನಗ ಮರ್ಮಾಲ್ " ಮಾಮಿ, ಎಲ್ಲೆ ಕಾಂಡೆ ಅರಿ ಏತ್ ,ಬಯ್ಯಗ್ ಏತ್ ಪಂಡ್ ಪೋಲೆ " ಇಂಚ ಪಂಡಲ್ಗೆ .
Translation --
Maami = ಮಾಮಿ = mother in law
bollad = ಬೊಲ್ಲಡ್ = in flood
ponaga = ಪೋನಗ = getting drowned
marmaal = ಮರ್ಮಾಲ್ = daughter in law
elle = ಎಲ್ಲೆ = tomorrow
kaande = ಕಾಂಡೆ = morning
eet = ಏತ್ = how much
ari = ಅರಿ = rice
bayya = ಬಯ್ಯ = evening
pand pole = ಪಂಡ್ ಪೋಲೆ = tell before leaving
incha pandalge = ಇಂಚ ಪಂಡಲ್ಗೆ = said
Summary =
Mother in law was very strict with her daughter in law. She was giving the orders when daughter in law was doing work. Daughter in law was fed up of this.
One day , it had rained heavily. There was a flood situation. Mother in law was getting sweeped away by flood. By seeing that , daughter in law says " before you leave , give instructions to prepare food ( like quantity of rice etc ).
In that situation also, daughter in law was saying these words. This shows her frustration
