Lovely millet dumpling

"Si nyiiri booyi ley fayande fu, wurtoto nyiiri lobbiri."

This is a Fulani proverb told to me today by Pierre when talking about how long I had to wait before meeting my fiancee Lynne:

It means:
"If the millet dumpling has spent a long time being cooked, it will turn out a lovely millet dumpling."
