Mũthii tene, ainũkaga o tene.

One who goes early returns early.

While the original proverb urges people to set off early to ensure that they return early hence discouraging procrastnation, the postproverbial portrays that it is of necessity that one who goes early automatically wakes up early.

• Postproverbial: Mũthii tene, okĩrire tene mũno.
  Translation: One who goes early wakes up very early.
