Roman English
Baaluwa nicharera tel aaudaina !
अर्थ
असंभव काम गर्न खोज्नु वा नहुने कुराबाट केही आशा राख्नु व्यर्थ हो। बालुवा निचोरेर तेल नआउने निश्चित भए जस्तै, केही कामहरू वा प्रयासहरूबाट कुनै फल प्राप्त हुँदैन।
उदाहरण
त्यो कन्जुससँग पैसा माग्नु त बालुवा निचरेर तेल निकाल्नु जस्तै हो, उसले एक पैसा दिँदैन।
Literal English Translation
Oil does not come from squeezing sand.
English Meaning
It means that you cannot get something from where it doesn't exist or from an impossible source. It's futile to expect a positive outcome from an inherently unproductive or impossible endeavor.
English Proverb
You can't get blood out of a stone.
