Sakla samani gelir zamani

My dads favourite. "Save the hay for another day" ish.......

This only works in Turkish, since both the words sound very much the same to the ear.

It loses a lot of it's punch, when translated into English.

( Save the hay, for it's time will come )

I think that's what makes the Turkish sayings so good. They have wise meanings but at the same time they rhyme.
