લોંડી તોએ રાજની, સારૂં તોએ મસાણુ;

lōṁḍī tōē rājanī, sārūṁ tōē masāṇu;

Literally: Even if a maidservant, she is of the palace; even if good, it is a crematorium;
What it means: Association with royalty or high status carries prestige even in a lowly position, whereas even a good crematorium remains a place of death.
