બેઠક Bethak

મોટાંનાં પરણે રીતે, ને ગરીબનાં પરણે ગીતે.

mōṭāṁnāṁ paraṇē rītē, nē garībanāṁ paraṇē gītē.

Literally
The rich marry with customs, and the poor marry with songs.
What it means
Wealthy families celebrate weddings with expensive rituals and displays, while poor families celebrate with simple joy and singing.
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

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