બેઠક Bethak

કબુદ્ધિની મત થોડી, ઘર વેચીને લીધી ઘોડી.

kabuddhinī mata thōḍī, ghara vēcīnē līdhī ghōḍī.

Literally
A foolish mind has little sense, selling the house to buy a mare.
What it means
Said of foolish people who sacrifice basic shelter for vanity.
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.
