બેઠક Bethak

તબ તરવર એસા ભને, સુના પાત ઈત ભાત;

taba taravara ēsā bhanē, sunā pāta īta bhāta;

Literally
Then the tree speaks thus: Listen, O leaves, in this manner.
What it means
A reminder that in the cycle of life, parting is natural as one generation leaves and another arrives.

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