gakkını qayağa urğança

/ɡakkɯnɯ qajaʁa urʁantʃa/

Literal translation

as if striking an egg against a rock

Of what a person says or does: to have no effect whatsoever; to be completely in vain.

Adamıŋı barın, malıŋı, ol oğay, itiŋi qoşub tergeseŋ da, har biriŋe miŋişer soldat jeterikdi. Alağa ne qarıw etallıqsa? Gakkını qayağa urğandan çırt başhası joqdu.Count all your people, your livestock, and your dogs too for that matter — there will be a thousand soldiers for each one. What strength can you bring against them? It is no different from striking an egg against a rock.
