Vous avez cherché: lau (Swahili - Anglais)

hayo ni bora kwenu, lau kama mnajua.
that is better for you if ye did but know.

lau mngeli jua kwa ujuzi wa yakini,
if you knew with a sure knowledge (the end result of piling up, you would not have occupied yourselves in worldly things)

lau kuwa hawa ni miungu, wasingeli ingia.
had the idols been true lords, they would not have gone to hell.

na lau kama angeli tuzulia baadhi ya maneno tu,
and if he (muhammad saw) had forged a false saying concerning us (allah),

na lau kuwa hatukukuweka imara ungeli karibia kuwaelekea kidogo.
and had it not been that we had already established you, you would certainly have been near to incline to them a little;

na lau mwenyezi mungu angeli penda, wasingeli shiriki.
and had allah willed, they had not associated.

sivyo hivyo! lau mngeli jua kwa ujuzi wa yakini,
and yet if you knew with positive knowledge
