Transcript for "Advice to the youth"
Speaker: Gloria Nanjala
Esese kamasina bali Gloria Nanjala, omukhana omwala.
My name is Gloria Nanjala, a lady from Baala clan.
Esese ndi anano nga kukhu we babana lundi ndi mayi we babana.
I am here as the grandma to children also as the mother of children.
Lundi ndi omusomesia weledhekhebu, omwikisia welidhekhebu.
Also, I am a teacher of the church, a guider at the church.
Endalo yino lilio likhuwa nilio liananisie sana kumoyo mala nenyile luno ngachule nenanywe nga basiange.
This day there is something that really troubled my heart and I wanted to talk to you today as my friends.
Kalio kamakhuwa fulani niko khulabiranga mumaisha kefwe, sindu siecha bali limenya lia kisasa namwe ‘digital life’ nga babene balomanga.
There are some things that we are going through in our lives, something came, called digital life as they call it
Kwaivyo maisha kano kabele nekakhunania mumaisha kefwe selili likenda libi ta, seli lifwara libi ta, seli khwikhala khuchingila nicho chikhasimisia ta.
Now, this life has been troubling us in our day to day lives, it is about not walking carelessly, not dressing badly, not sitting along the roads that are not good.
Kwaivyo esiku ya luno nenyile efwe nga bandu be eselukho yenyikhana mumanye sibala sino nga sinakendanga.
So this day I wanted us as the people of this generation, you need to know how this world is walking.
Sindu sia kwanza nisio yenyikhana khumanye endalo yino, yenyekhana khumanye khuli bulio bulwale bali muniafu bunamalanga bandu.
The first thing that we need to know this day, we need to know that there is a disease called HIV/AIDS that is finishing people.
Ne bulwale buno sebulola chirika ta, sebulola chisura ta, chibukula sa omundu okhelinda ta.
And this disease does not select on ages, faces, it affects everyone who does not care about themselves.
Kwa hibyo esese mbabolela enywewe nga basiange berika yange nandi mwilinde.
So, I tell you as my friends, who are my age mates, to take care of yourselves.
Sindu sisindi nisio silonakanga bandu musibala sino lifuala.
Something else that is spoiling people in this world is dressing code.
Onyala waba nokenda nobona nobona bandu balala okela oli omundu ali sichula lakini khane kafwalile mala katabusie.
You may be walking, then you see some people who, you may think they are naked, but in a real sense they have dressed completely.
Namwe onyala wanyola omundu akhola bikholwa bikhurisia waloma oli aba sibala sino khokhucha wae?
Or you may find someone doing intimidating things and you ask yourself, "where is this world going?"
Bikholwa bilala onyola omundu kebadilisia maumbile kewe bekalukhasia nga ne wele nekabalonga.
Some actions, like you find someone changing their body genetics, they change how God created them.
Eli nga nono omundu anyala kabadilisia esura yewe, omundu kebulwa omumali kenya abe nga omusungu na okundi kebulwa omunyelele mala kenya abe omunefukho khubiririra ne babandi wele kabalonga nebakhali nende bukesi bunyala bwakhola ekasi ta kwaivyo benya bache bakhole bakhole bindu binyala biakila babe nende bukesi bwa angaki khukhila Wele omwene owabalonga.
It is like a person can change their face, they were born black but they wanna be like whites, another was born slim but wants to be fat and some people are born without any brains so they do things that will give them more brains than God who created them.
Kwaivyo endalo ya luno yenyekha khumanye khuli wele niye owalonga sibala sino, wele niyo owalonga bulisindu, kalonga bandu, kalonda nende chisang’i, nende buli sindu.
So today, we are supposed to know that it is God who created this world, it is God who created everything, created humans, created wild animals and everything.
Kwaivyo efwe nga wanadamu namwe efwe nga nibo wele kalonga musibala sino sekhunyala khwakhola bindu khutume wele ta.
So we as human beings, or we as people who God created in this world, we cannot do things beyond God.
Alafu sindu sindi nisio yenyekhana khumanye efwefwe nga nisio khwenyekhana khukhole basiange yenyekhana khwielewa khumanye khuli efwefwe nga khuli musibala sino yenyekhana omanye oli nende manufaa sina namwe oli nende bukhala si musibala sino.
Again, another thing that we need to know like, we need to do guys, we need to understand ourselves to know that when we are on this world, you are supposed to know what importance you have on this earth.
Yenyekhana omwanye onyala wakholakho sina musibala sino sinyala siakhukhola wamanyikhana nga musirekere namwe mubwibulo bwenywe.
You need to know what can you do on this earth, that can make yourself be known, like in your area or in your family.
Lundi yenyekhana omundu omanye oli oli omundu wa maana sana musibala sino mala okhera asi sana ta, okhelola kabali ewe sonyala ta.
Again, someone is supposed to to know that, you, a very important person on this world, do not demean yourself so much, do not view yourself as someone who is not able.
Buli mundu ali nende bunyali musibala sino.
Everyone is capable in this world.
Sindu sisindi silatibianga bandu musibala sino chili chisilingi nicho bandu bananyolanga mungila ekhali ekhali endai ta namwe endila ekhali engololofu ta.
Another thing that is misleading people in this world is money that people are getting in a way that is not genuine or good.
Onyola bandu balala balachilililanga khwinamila shetani babene nebalanga bali ‘illuminati’ kusudi banyole chisendi chingali sana beyombakhe.
You meet some people who have made it a habit to worship satan, who they call "illuminati" so that they get a lot of money to build themselves.
Lakini baadaye onyola omundu katibile kachilile mungila ekhasimisia wele ta.
But later you find someone lost in a way that does not please God.
Ne lundi chisilingi chino chilakilanga bandu banatajirikanga haraka sana mungila ya haraka khukhilwa aba wele wefwe yuno ali wae.
Again, this money is making people to get rich faster until we fail to understand where our God is.
Kwaivyo bana befwe mbasaya busa nandi mube balolelefu sana sikila sibala sia sai somanya kumureko kukhurekera wae ta, onyala wenyola khokhola kamakhua kakandi niko sowaipanga mumaisha koo oli okhakholekho ta.
So my people, I beseech you to be on watch because that world on today, you cannot know where the trap traps you, you may find yourself doing other things that you did not plan to do in your life.
Nekhusichilila khurio, kamakhua kanakholanga ata basomi mubisomelo tofauti nga muyunibasiti, mukolegi, basomi balatibanga khubirira burumikhi bwe kamalesi ke khumesia namwe basungu bene balanga bali ‘drug abuse’.
As we continue, things that are making even students in different learning institutions like universities, college students are getting lost through hard drugs or whites call it "drug abuse."
Kwaivyo efwefwe nga banarika yenyikhana khumanye khuli bindu bino binyala byakila khwatibia maisha kefwe mala khwalonda chingila nicho chikhenyikhana ta mala bindu nga khurumikhila kamalesi ka kulevya kano kakilanga onyola basomi sebali muskuli ta, babana sebanyolekhana khangu ta onyola omusasi kaila omwana esikuli omwana khane sali esikuli ta babana bacha khumela sebanyolekha ta, omusasi anyola bise bilume.
So we as youths are supposed to know that these things can make us lose our lives and follow ways that are not good and things like abusing hard drugs makes you not find students at school, children cannot be goten faster, you find a parent has taken a child to school and the child may not be at school, children go to get drunk, they cannot be found, a parent gets hard times.
Nono sibala sino siachililile mungila embi mala silonakanga bana banarika namwe bana baelwa.
So this world has not been moving in a good way and it is spoiling youths or those in their adolescence.
Sikila nibo bali, nendee bana baelwa bano balalondanga chingila chikhali chindayi ta mala chinabailanga ne batiba.
Because these children in adolescence are not following the right way and it is causing them get destroyed.
Likhuwa lilindi lilakilanga bandu nebakhamenya maisha kamalayi ta sindu silio bali bandu sebamenyelesia muchingo chabwe ta, yaani eli nga omukhasi kabela mungo lakini satosheka nende basecha ta, kenya khucha nende basecha bakali basecha be babandu.
Something else that is making people not to live good lives, there is something that people are not contented with their homes, like you find a woman who got married but she is not satisfied or contented with men, she wants to move with a lot of men, other people's husbands.
Nono onyola chingo chingali chilafunikhanga sikila basecha nende bakhasi nende basima babwe sebanaelewanga ta namwe sebanabechanga nende busime obwo ta nono chingo chilaelanga namwe bandu banatibianga chinju chabwe.
So you find most homes are breaking because men with their wives and their loved ones are not understanding each other or they do not have that love, so homes are failing or people are losing their marriages.
Kwivyo esese nga mayi we babana namwe kukhu we babana nyala nema khubibili mala nabaelesia ndi mukende muchingila chindayi mala bindu biosi bibi niba mbo bindu biosi bibi binyala biatokea khuchingila chefwe, khunyala khwamanya engila nio khunyala khwarumikhila ili khuepuke kamakhua kamakali.
So, I as a mother to children or a grandma to children, I can courageously stand and tell you that walk in ways that are good and all bad things, if there is any bad thing that can arise in our way, we can identify a way we can use that so we refrain from many things.
Liekhumalilisia nenya sa khubasima mala nenya mbatinyilisie ili mube nende kumoyo okwo, kumoyo nikwo munyala mwamenya mala mwekesia babasio nibo bakhanyolile ujumbe ino ta mubasomie. Kwaivyo, esese eeh.
To conclude, I just want to thank you and encourage you so that you have that spirit, a spirit that you can live and teach others who did not get this message, you teach them.
