English translation

Whatever he sets out to say, his case comes through plainly.

Literal wording

His tuft of wool is lit up.

Meaning and lesson

The image is of a person whose bit of wool glows, a small thing made bright and noticeable. Figuratively, it points to someone whose situation or concern comes clearly into view through each attempt he makes to state or convey it.

Applied to a person, the phrase observes that what he is about stands evident in his efforts to express it. The emphasis falls on clarity and visibility, so a translation should keep that plain sense rather than layering on extra judgment.

When it is used

Apply it when remarking that someone's situation or purpose comes through clearly in whatever they try to say or put forward. Keep the rendering plain and descriptive, without turning it into open praise or criticism.
