दुराराध्याश्चामी तुरगचलचित्ताः क्षितिभुजोवयं च स्थूलेच्छाः सुमहति फले बद्धमनसः ।जरा देहं मृत्युर्हरति दयितं जीवनमिदंसखे नान्यच्छ्रेयो जगति विदुषोऽन्यत्र तपसः ॥७७॥durārādhyāścāmī turagacalacittāḥ kṣitibhujovayaṃ ca sthūlecchāḥ sumahati phale baddhamanasaḥ |jarā dehaṃ mṛtyurharati dayitaṃ jīvanamidaṃsakhe nānyacchreyo jagati viduṣo'nyatra tapasaḥ ||77||
Translation
These rulers of the land with their minds as restless as horses are difficult to please. We of great ambitions have determined our minds to achieve the greatest gain. Old age steals away the body. Death steals away this beloved life. Friend! There is nothing as conducive to welfare as penance, for a wise man in this world! ॥ 77 ॥
