ışanŋan başnı it aşar

/ɯʃanŋan baʃnɯ it aʃar/

Literal translation

a dog will eat the head that trusted

Do not leave your own business in someone else's hands; stay watchful, because misplaced trust ends badly.

Işanŋan başnı it aşar dep, Rabiyğa, ışanıb... endi ol jerni ua jaŋıdan sürürge kerekdi, – dep, traktorçu brigadanı brigadiri olsağat qophan jerine olturdu."A dog eats the head that trusted — I put my trust in Rabiy... and now that field has to be ploughed all over again," said the foreman of the tractor brigade, and sat back down where he had just risen.
Saŋa ışanŋannı başın börü aşar! – dep, qart anası qızçığına tırman etdi."A wolf will eat the head of anyone who trusts you!" — so her old mother scolded the little girl.
