બેઠક Bethak

નાચનારીના પગ રહે નહીં, ને ગાનારીનું ગળું રહે નહીં.

nācanārīnā paga rahē nahīṁ, nē gānārīnuṁ gaḷuṁ rahē nahīṁ.

Literally
A female dancer's feet do not stay still, and a female singer's throat does not stay quiet.
What it means
People cannot help practicing or showing off the skills they are accustomed to.
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.
