Transitoriness of Health and Wealth
Health and wealth are shortliving, Like the shining pearl of dew, As that of bubbles, sparks, lightening Those having them always, are even few ?
Old age ouercomes the blooming youth Human body turns quite lean and Pale Never runs the life-pace smooth O mind's equilibrium ! to thee, I hail.
The equilibrium of thoughts at appex of Robust health and immense pelf, At any rate should not be shaken off It is the joy of tranquil self.
Jain Education International
Self is permanent and stable No death can make it die, But health and wealth are perishable They will surely one day fly.
