वर्षति वर्षासु नि:स्वनो मेघ:
नीचो वदति ने कुरुते
न वदति सुजन: करोत्येव.
Sharadi Na Varshati Garjati
Varshati Varshasu Ni: Swano Megh:
Neecho Vadati na kurute,
Na vadati sujan: Karotyev.
Meaning: In the Sharad season, the clouds make a lot of noise, but do not rain. During the rainy season, however, they rain, but make no noise. Similarly, a boastful person talks a lot, but does nothing, while a virtuous one performs the action without talking about it.
The Hindi Muhavara that says the same thing is:
जो गरजते हैं सो बरसते नहीं
Jo Garajte hain So Baraste Nahi
Those who thunder, they do not rain.
Usage: आप बस उसे धमकाते ही रहते हो, कि खेत पर काम में लगा देंगे. अब तो वह भी समझ गया है, जो गरजते हैं, वो बरसते नहीं। इसीलिए निडर हो गया है.
