The right answer is " Every cloud has a silver lining".

Explanation: A cliché is an idea, phrase or expression that has been repeatedly used or has lost its strength or novelty and has become banal. In this case, the expression "every cloud has a silver lining" has already been so repeated that it has become something trivial, without great importance and without effect.
