Translation: The cost of the festival has come on us, but no knows or trusts us here.
Transliteration: Ail tiherva, kharchae ke gharba, na koi chinhe jane, nahin etibarva.
Moral/Context: Natives look on it as a bounden duty to keep up the fixed festivals at any cost, the proverb therefore applies to a poor stranger.
