બેઠક Bethak

ભાણા ખડ ખડ ને લોહ જડ, આવતડાં પઇઆં;

bhāṇā khaḍa khaḍa nē lōha jaḍa, āvataḍāṁ paiāṁ;

What it means
Left blank on purpose. The scan is damaged here and the words are not certain enough to translate — English written over a guess would hide the guess rather than fix it. The Gujarati above is what could be read.

Also said as

  • એટલાં વાનાં જળવે, જેનાં વજરમે હઇઆં.
  • ચડતા દિનનું પારખું, ઘેર આવે મેહેમાન;
  • પડતા દિનનું પારખું, ઘેર ન આવે શ્વાન.
ગુજરાતી કહેવતસંગ્રહ (Gujarati Kahevat Sangrah) (1921) · read from the scan by machine — the Gujarati itself is unchecked · awaiting its meaning

Heard it differently, or know we've got the sense wrong? Tell us — that is exactly the kind of correction this needs.
