બેઠક Bethak

જીસે રામકા ડર નહીં, નહીં પંચકી લાજ; ઉસે છેડ ક્યા કીજીએ, ચુપ ભલી મહારાજ.

jīsē rāmakā ḍara nahīṁ, nahīṁ paṁcakī lāja; usē chēḍa kyā kījīē, cupa bhalī mahārāja.

Literally
He who has no fear of God and no shame before the community assembly; why provoke him, silence is better, O King.
What it means
It is best to remain silent and avoid confronting a shameless person who fears neither divine nor social authority.

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