Shatakatraya 3.44

3.44

rātriḥ saiva punaḥ sa eva divaso matvā mudhā jantavo
dhāvanty udyaminas tathaiva nibhṛta-prārabdha-tat-tat-kriyāḥ |
vyāpāraiḥ punar-ukta-bhūta-viṣayair itthaṃ vidhenāmunā
saṃsāreṇa kadarthitā vayam aho mohān na lajjāmahe ||

Thinking 'It is that very night again, that very same day,' people run in vain, / energetic and secretly engaged in various undertakings just as before; / through affairs whose objects have become mere repetition in this manner, / we are tormented by the cycle of worldly existence—alas, out of delusion we feel no shame!
