ટેભા ઝાલે તેમ નથી.

ṭēbhā jhālē tēma nathī.

Literally: The stitches cannot hold it.
What it means: Said of a matter or relationship that is so ruined that temporary fixes or patches can no longer save it.

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.
