Exactly. Python : Lua :: CL : Guile. Python and CL are much more capable general-purpose languages than Lua and Guile, but the latter are better for embedding into larger programs, partially because of their limited scope and features (which, among other things, simplify the amount of work that the embedding program has to do, as well as the FFI between the two).
