બેઠક Bethak

સદા સ્નેહી સંગ નહીં, સદા ન રાજા દેશ;

sadā snēhī saṁga nahīṁ, sadā na rājā dēśa;

Literally
The beloved is not always with us, nor is the king always in his country.
What it means
Nothing in this world is permanent, neither the company of loved ones nor the power of rulers.

Also said as

  • સદા ન જુગમેં જીવના, સદા ન કૌલા દેશ.
