બેઠક Bethak

વાત દુઃખની જાણે દુશમન, તો થાસે મનમાં મગન; જે દોસ્ત એવી સાંભળશે વાત, તો તેના પેટમાં પડશે ફાટ વગર દુઃખનું કાઈ નથી, જખ્મમાં છે દુઃખ સુનાના ઢગમાં.

vāta duḥkhanī jāṇē duśamana, tō thāsē manamāṁ magana; jē dōsta ēvī sāṁbhaḷaśē vāta, tō tēnā pēṭamāṁ paḍaśē phāṭa vagara duḥkhanuṁ kāī nathī, jakhmamāṁ chē duḥkha sunānā ḍhagamāṁ.

Literally
If an enemy knows of the pain, they will be happy in their mind; if a friend hears such a story, then a crack will fall in their stomach. There is nothing without pain, there is pain in the pile of gold.
What it means
Left blank on purpose. The scan is damaged here and the words are not certain enough to translate — English written over a guess would hide the guess rather than fix it. The Gujarati above is what could be read.
કહેવત સમુદાય (Kahevat Samuday) · read from the scan by machine — the Gujarati itself is unchecked · awaiting its meaning

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