Translation
(ALAS! WHY GOOD MEN SUFFER?)
Observing the elephant, snake, and birds getting trapped (for no fault of theirs); the moon and the sun getting harassed by the vicious planets; (for no reason) and the men of wisdom living in poverty;(ignored by the society) alas, I think that this destiny (Brahmaa’s rule) alone is the most powerful thing. ॥ 85 ॥
