બેઠક Bethak

વૃદ્ધ જનોની આગળે, લાજ ધરે ન લગાર; મશ્કરીઓમાં જે રમે, મૂર્ખનો સરદાર.

vr̥ddha janōnī āgaḷē, lāja dharē na lagāra; maśkarīōmāṁ jē ramē, mūrkhanō saradāra.

Literally
Showing not a bit of shame before elders; the one who plays in mockeries, the chief of fools.
What it means
Said of an insolent and foolish youth who shows no respect to elders and spends their time in idle mockery.
