નૃપ માર ચલી અપને પિયાસૈ, પિયા સર્પ ડસ્યો, દુઃખમેં પર હું,

nr̥pa māra calī apanē piyāsai, piyā sarpa ḍasyō, duḥkhamēṁ para huṁ,

What it means: Left blank on purpose. The scan is damaged here and the words are not certain enough to translate — English written over a guess would hide the guess rather than fix it. The Gujarati above is what could be read.

Also said as

ગુજરાતી કહેવતસંગ્રહ (Gujarati Kahevat Sangrah) (1923) · read from the scan by machine — the Gujarati itself is unchecked · awaiting its meaning

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