બેઠક Bethak

મારનારના હાથ પકડાય પણ બોલનારની જીભ નહીં પકડાય.

māranāranā hātha pakaḍāya paṇa bōlanāranī jībha nahīṁ pakaḍāya.

Literally
The hands of the hitter can be caught, but the tongue of the speaker cannot be caught.
What it means
Physical violence can be restrained, but words once spoken cannot be taken back.
કહેવત સમુદાય (Kahevat Samuday) · read from the scan by machine — the Gujarati itself is unchecked · English is machine-made and nobody has checked it yet
