ગઈ તક પાછી આવતી નથી

ગઈ તક પછ આવત નથ

Lost opportunity never returns

意味

Time once wasted cannot be regained.

🌍

文化的背景

In the Gujarati business community, being 'ready' for an opportunity is more important than having capital. This proverb is often quoted by successful entrepreneurs to explain their quick decision-making. Parents in India use this proverb constantly during the 10th and 12th-grade board exams to remind children that these academic windows only open once. The concept of 'Muhurat' (auspicious time) is deeply linked to this proverb. If you miss the Muhurat, the 'tak' is considered spiritually lost. Many poems by famous poets like Narmad or Dalpatram emphasize the value of time using similar imagery of a flowing river or a bird in flight.

Not at all! It is still very common in business, social media captions, and daily advice.

You can say 'Gayelo samay pāchho āvato nathī', but 'Gai tak...' is the more common idiomatic form.

It might be seen as too bold. It's better to use it with peers, subordinates, or in a general presentation.
