બેઠક Bethak

પાછલી રાતનું ઉઠવું, ને જુવાનીનું જણવું.

pāchalī rātanuṁ uṭhavuṁ, nē juvānīnuṁ jaṇavuṁ.

Literally
Waking up in the latter part of the night, and giving birth in youth.
What it means
Both early rising and early childbearing require effort but bring long-term benefits and ease later in life.
