Mwana wowenzara / murasi

Shona Definition

Vanhu vanotambura pamwe navana vavo ndivo vasingagoni kuchengeta zvinhu.

Those who have least are frequently the worst at managing the little that reaches them, and so hunger stays at their door. The saying makes a wry observation of something people see often.
