मरणान्तानि वैराणि प्रसवान्तञ्च यौवनम् ।

कोपिता प्रणतान्ता हि याचितान्तं च गौरवम् ॥ २७१

Maranatani vairani prasavantancha yauvanam ।

Kopita pranatanta hi yachitantam cha gauravam ॥

Enmity comes to an end with death. Youth ends with pregnancy. Anger comes

down by bowing down. Respect comes down by begging.

आयुर्वित्तं गृहच्छिद्रं मन्त्रमौषध मैथुने ।
दानं मानापमानौ च नव गोप्यानि कारयेत् ॥ २७२

Ayurvittam gruhachchidram mantramaushada maithuna ।

Danam manapamanau cha nava gopyani karayet ॥

One’s age, finances, problems in the house, mantras, medicines and sex,

Charity, respect gained, insults borne are nine things to be kept secret.

तत्कर्म यन्न बन्धाय सा विद्या या विमुक्तये।
आयासायापरं कर्म विद्यऽन्या शिल्पनैपुणम्॥ २७३

Tatkarma yanna bandhaya sa vidya ya vimuktaye ।

Ayasayaparam karma vidya anya shilpanaipunam ॥

Karma is one which does not put one n bondage, education is that which releases one. Other karmas are full of effort only, other education only imparts skills.

कः कस्य पुरुषो बन्धुः किमाप्यं कस्य केनचित् ।

यदेको जायते जन्तुरेक एव विनश्यति ॥ २७४

Kah kasya purusho bandhuh kimapyam kasya kenachit ।

Yadeko jayate jantureka eva vinashyati ॥

Who is friend to whom? Who is to get anything from whom?

A being is born alone and alone it will die.

न च शत्रुरवज्ञेयो दुर्बलोऽपि बलियसा ।

अल्पोऽपि हि दहत्यग्निर्विषमल्पं हिनस्ति च ॥ २७५

Na cha shatruravajneyo durbalo api baliyasa ।

Alpo api hi dahatyagnirvishamalpam hinasti cha ॥

A powerful person should not ignore an enemy even he is weak.

Even a small fire can burn and a small quantity of poison kill.
