    “Ile Oba tojo ewa lo bukun” is an adage in Yoruba language . Literal translation is “The king’s palace that got burnt would add beauty to it when reconstructed” its main meaning is that “ every cloud has a silver lining” it is often used to give assurance of hope when calamity befalls someone. Yoruba is “one” of the most complex languages.

    @@Missy50505 it's kinda like an insult or meant to be insulting, it is used when an adult isn't acting his/her age, the relevance of the color there is it's allusion to age, as we grow old, our hair gets whiter or greyer, so a chicken that was born white since it has been white all its life won't realize it has aged because it was never black, and it'll continue acting young. The hair there is an indication of age(not that chickens change color as they grow older, but I hope you get what I mean)
