કણીર ગર્વ ન કીજીએ, રંક ન હસીએ કાય; અપના નાવ સમુદ્રમેં, કહા જાને કા હોય?

kaṇīra garva na kījīē, raṁka na hasīē kāya; apanā nāva samudramēṁ, kahā jānē kā hōya?

What it means: Left blank on purpose. The scan is damaged here and the words are not certain enough to translate — English written over a guess would hide the guess rather than fix it. The Gujarati above is what could be read.

ગુજરાતી કહેવતસંગ્રહ (Gujarati Kahevat Sangrah) (1923) · read from the scan by machine — the Gujarati itself is unchecked · awaiting its meaning

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