બેઠક Bethak

દીલ લગા વોહી સગા, ઓર સગા નહિ કોઇ;

dīla lagā vōhī sagā, ōra sagā nahi kōi;

Literally
The one to whom your heart is attached is your true relative, and there is no other relative.
What it means
True kinship is based on genuine affection and emotional connection rather than mere blood relations.

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