معنی
Doing things too fast leads to mistakes
زمینه فرهنگی
In villages, this proverb is often followed by 'gadd piche goye' (the cart ends up in dung), reflecting the agricultural lifestyle. The concept of 'Sahaj' (natural state/patience) in Sikhism aligns with this proverb, discouraging impulsive ego-driven actions. Used frequently in traffic safety campaigns by the Punjab Police to discourage speeding. In countries like Canada or the UK, Punjabi parents use this to remind their children not to lose their cultural 'steadiness' in the fast-paced Western world.
