sṛjati tāvad aśeṣa-guṇakaraṃ
puruṣa-ratnam alaṅkaraṇaṃ bhuvaḥ |
tad api tat-kṣaṇa-bhaṅgi karoti
ced ahaha kaṣṭam apaṇḍitatā vidheḥ ||
After creating a jewel of a man, a mine of boundless virtues, / an ornament to the earth, / the Creator nevertheless makes him frail and fleeting— / alas, what a pity is the Creator's lack of wisdom!
