Hazah thrup nal na asô.
TRANSLATED THUS:
One jump will take you into a well, but a thousand will not take
you out of it.
If one wishes to say that another has laid a trap and got caught himself, the saying is:
Châ Khundah, Châ derpesh.
TRANSLATED THUS:
If you dig a well for another, you will fall into it yourself.
Note.—In the 12th century there actually lived a saint called “Sakhi Sarwar,” whose real name was Sayyid Ahmad. His father is said to have been a native of Baghdad. In another legend he is represented as a disciple of the celebrated Pir Dastagir of Baghdad. Close to the tomb of this saint is a shrine to Baba Nanak, the founder of Sikhism, and a temple to Vishnu.—Crooke.
It may be that the “Sakhi” of this tale refers to this saint.
