બેઠક Bethak

જેનાં નાંખ્યાં નાણાં, તેનાં શાં આણાં ને પરીયાણાં?

jēnāṁ nāṁkhyāṁ nāṇāṁ, tēnāṁ śāṁ āṇāṁ nē parīyāṇāṁ?

Literally
For one whose money is sunk, what ceremonial visits or formal departures remain?
What it means
Losing one's fortune causes all social respect, standing, and etiquette to vanish.
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
