buğa terini nığışha çığarsaŋ, çabırlıq çıqmaz

/buʁa terini nɯʁɯʃxa tʃɯʁarsaŋ, tʃabɯrlɯq tʃɯqmaz/

Literal translation

if you bring a bull's hide out to the gathering place, not even enough for a pair of rawhide shoes will come out of it

When too many people have a say in a matter, the work never gets finished and nothing turns out well.

Nığışha çığarsaŋ, buğa teriden çabırlıq çıqmaz degenley, biri alaydı dese, birsi uğay dep, dawlaşhan qılıqları da boluwçudu.As the saying goes — bring a bull's hide out to the gathering place and not even a pair of rawhide shoes will come of it — they have a way of arguing, one saying it is so and the other saying no.
