બેઠક Bethak

કેરી વણુ ને આકડાને પણ થાય, પણ ખવાય ફક્ત આંબાની.

kērī vaṇu nē ākaḍānē paṇa thāya, paṇa khavāya phakta āṁbānī.

Literally
The mango can grow on the Aak plant too, but only the mango tree's fruit is eaten.
What it means
Quality and origin matter; not everything that looks the same is of equal value.
ગુજરાતી કહેવતસંગ્રહ (Gujarati Kahevat Sangrah) (1923) · read from the scan by machine — the Gujarati itself is unchecked · English is machine-made and nobody has checked it yet
