પેલે પાને ભગવાનદાસ, લુગડાં પહેરે સો પચાસ,

pēlē pānē bhagavānadāsa, lugaḍāṁ pahērē sō pacāsa,

Literally: On the first page is Bhagwandas, who wears fifty or a hundred clothes.
What it means: Said of someone who makes a grand, showy impression at the very beginning but lacks substance.

Also said as

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.
