Empty-handed

It means you left a place without getting what you wanted or expected. You tried, but you didn’t succeed — and you got nothing.

Examples:

1- I waited in line for concert tickets, but they sold out. I came home empty-handed.

2-  Today, it’s still used when we don’t get what we hoped for — whether it’s gifts, opportunities, or prizes.
