બેઠક Bethak

એવી ભોળી કાણુ હોય કે પારકા ધણી પાછળ ચૂડા ભાંગે.

ēvī bhōḷī kāṇu hōya kē pārakā dhaṇī pāchaḷa cūḍā bhāṁgē.

Literally
Who is so foolish a woman as to break her bangles over another's husband?
What it means
Nobody mourns deeply or makes great sacrifices for someone who is not their own.
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

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