馬ば鹿かも休やすみ休やすみ言いえ

expression

stop talking nonsense; don't be ridiculous; give me a break

A set phrase used to sharply tell someone they are speaking foolishly. Often carries a tone of exasperation or contempt. The literal meaning is 'even a fool should rest before speaking', implying that the listener's words are so absurd they should take a break from talking.

  There's no way that plan will succeed. Stop talking nonsense.
