બેઠક Bethak

ચાકરી કરે લાખ, લેણા દેવી લક્ષ્મી; હીરલા મળે ઢલાક, શીરાવી જાય શીયલા.

cākarī karē lākha, lēṇā dēvī lakṣmī; hīralā maḷē ḍhalāka, śīrāvī jāya śīyalā.

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

  • ચાકરી કરે લાખ, લેણા દેવી લક્ષ્મી;
  • હીરલા મળે ઢલાક, શીરાવી જાય શીયલા.
ગુજરાતી કહેવતસંગ્રહ (Gujarati Kahevat Sangrah) (1923) · 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.
