Gatitu ka ngoro, gatiunanagwo.

The grove of the heart is not laid bare.

The original proverb is metaphorical of an invidual’s secret some of which should remain under lock and key. The postproverbial is of capitalist imagination by introducing the lexeme ‘owner’ and indicating that not all knowledge should be shared.

• Postproverbial: Gatitu ka ngoro, no mwene ũkoĩ wega.
  Translation: The grove of the heart is well known by the owner.
