- English translation
By tomorrow, the snow will have melted and the meadow will be visible.
- Literal wording
Tomorrow the snow will melt and the meadow will appear.
- Meaning and lesson
What is hidden or unclear may become visible in time, especially once the obstacles that conceal it have disappeared. The saying presents revelation as something that arrives with changing conditions rather than forced disclosure.
When the moment has not yet come, pressing for an answer may be futile; the situation can clarify itself as barriers recede. It therefore encourages patience while awaiting the exposure of what is presently obscured.
- When it is used
Use it when a concealed fact, unclear situation, or unresolved matter is expected to become clear later, particularly after the conditions preventing disclosure have passed.
