બેઠક Bethak

સારું તોએ નાતરું, બેખલી તોએ વેહેલ; વસમું તોએ સાસરું, ઘરડા તોએ ખેલ.

sāruṁ tōē nātaruṁ, bēkhalī tōē vēhēla; vasamuṁ tōē sāsaruṁ, gharaḍā tōē khēla.

Literally
Even if good, it is a second marriage; even if slow, it is a carriage; even if difficult, it is the in-laws' house; even if old, it is a game.
What it means
Certain things have inherent qualities or difficulties that remain true regardless of circumstances, such as the challenges of a second marriage or living with in-laws.
