બેઠક Bethak

આપકા સે સાપકા, દુસરે સાલે ફાસપુસીએ.

āpakā sē sāpakā, dusarē sālē phāsapusīē.

Literally
One's own kin is like a snake's bite, others are mere whispers.
What it means
Trouble caused by one's own relatives hurts far deeper than harm from strangers.
ગુજરાતી કહેવતસંગ્રહ (Gujarati Kahevat Sangrah) (1921) · read from the scan by machine — the Gujarati itself is unchecked · English is machine-made and nobody has checked it yet
