Translation
Hundred years are the ordained age-limit for the human beings. Half of it is gone in nights. (by sleeping) Of its half, one half goes off in childhood and old age. The left over days gets spent in serving others accompanied by the pains of diseases and separations. Where can humans ever get any happiness in this life which is as unstable as the wave rising on the surface of waters? ॥ 49 ॥
