«يَا وَاخْدُهْ كُلُّهْ يَا فَايْتُهْ كُلُّهْ»

The saying speaks to a person who gathers up everything for themselves and holds it tightly. It sets that total possession against an equally total loss: whatever has been seized in full will, in time, be surrendered in full, because nothing a person owns goes with them into the grave.

The two matching halves, taking all and leaving all, place complete gain beside complete loss. That balance makes grasping acquisition look futile, since death strips away every possession regardless of how much was amassed or how firmly it was held.

Directed at, or said about, someone who takes everything and keeps a tight grip on it, reminding them that all they have seized will be left behind at death. Addressed directly, it can sound like a rebuke or blunt reminder of mortality, so tone and relationship matter.
