意思
Time continues to pass regardless of anything.
文化背景
In Nepal, punctuality is often flexible in social settings (Nepali Time), but this proverb is used to reinforce the importance of 'Western' punctuality in professional life. Time (Samaya/Kaal) is seen as a manifestation of the divine. To waste time is seen as a lack of respect for the life one has been given. This proverb is one of the first 'Ukhans' (proverbs) children learn in school, often used as a topic for short essays. Younger generations use this phrase ironically on social media when they are busy or when they want to show they are 'hustling'.
Use it as a 'Closer'
Use this phrase at the end of an argument to convince someone to act. It's hard to argue with a universal truth!
Don't overdo it
If you say this every time someone is 5 minutes late, you will sound annoying. Save it for big moments.

The 'Le' variation
Adding 'le' (समयले...) makes it sound slightly more poetic and personifies time more strongly.

常见问题
4 个问题No, it's a proverb, so it's naturally a bit formal, but friends use it with each other all the time to give advice.
No. 'Bela' also means time, but for this specific proverb, only 'Samaya' is used.
There isn't a direct opposite proverb, but 'Dhairya ko fal mitho huncha' (The fruit of patience is sweet) suggests that waiting can be good.
It depends on your tone. If said gently, it's advice. If shouted, it's a reprimand.
