બેઠક Bethak

ભેંસનું પુછડું ધરી નદી પાર જવાય નહીં. ભાત, ચારણ, ને કુતરું ઘેરી બેસે બાર, ખાય પણ ખીસે નહી, લાજે નહી લગાર.

bhēṁsanuṁ puchaḍuṁ dharī nadī pāra javāya nahīṁ. bhāta, cāraṇa, nē kutaruṁ ghērī bēsē bāra, khāya paṇa khīsē nahī, lājē nahī lagāra.

Literally
One cannot cross the river by holding the buffalo's tail. The Bhat, the Charan, and the dog sit around, they eat but do not move, they are not ashamed at all.
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.
કહેવત સમુદાય (Kahevat Samuday) · 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.
