जामाता जठरं जाया जातवेदा जलाशयः ।
पूरिता नैव पूर्यन्ते जकाराः पञ्च दुर्भराः ॥ ५०६

Jamata jataram jaya jataveda jalashayah ।
Purita naiva puryante jakarah pancha durbharah ॥

Son-in-law, stomach, wife, fire and reservoir are five beings
with names starting with Ja never satisfied even when full.

अलब्धं चैव लिप्सेत लब्धं रक्षेदवेक्षया ।
रक्षितं वर्द्धयेत् सम्यक् वृद्धं तीर्थेषु निक्षिपेत् ॥ ५०७

Alabdham chaiva lipseta labdham rakshedavekshaya ।
Rakshitam varddhayet samyak vruddham tirtheshu nikshipet ॥

Yearn to obtain the unobtained, protect the obtained safely, enhance
what is obtained & preserved, distribute what is preserved to the worthy.

यो दुःखितानि भूतानि दृष्ट्वा भवति दुःखितः ।
सुखितानि सुखी चापि स धर्मात्मेति गीयते ॥ ५०८

Yo dukhitani bhutani drushtva bhavati dukhitah ।
Sukhitani sukhi chapi sa dharmatmeti giyate ॥

One who becomes unhappy seeing other beings in grief and becomes
happy seeing them happy is considered to be a dharmatma.

निश्चित्वा यः प्रक्रमते नान्तर्वसति कर्मणः ।
अवन्ध्यकालो वश्यात्मा स वै पण्डित उच्यते ॥ ५०९


nishchitva yah prakramate nantarvasati karmanah ।
avandhyakalo vashyatma sa vai pandita uchyate
॥


One who starts work with definite goals, who does not take long rests before the task is accomplished, who has control over his mind till the end is considered a Pandit.

विज्ञानगुणमहार्घे पुरुषे द्वेष्यत्वमपि रमणीयम् ।
जननिंदिते पुनर्जने प्रियत्वेनापि लज्जामहे ॥ ५१०

Vijnanagunamaharghe purushe dveshyatvamapi ramaniyam ।
Jananindite punarjane priyatvenapi lajjamahe ॥

Even enmity towards a learned and respected person is enjoyable,
But friendship towards a person hated by everyone is shameful.
