मनः शीघ्रतरं वाताच्चिन्ता बहुतरी तृणात् ॥ ६५१

Mata gurutara bhumeh khat pitoccharastatha ।
Manah shighrataram vatacchinta bahutari truant ॥

Mother is weightier than earth, father is higher than the sky.
Mind is faster than wind, worry is lighter than straw.

स हि भवति दरिद्रो यस्य तृष्णा विशाला ।
मनसि च परितुष्टे कोर्थवान् को दरिद्राः ॥ ६५२

Sa hi bhavati daridro yasya trushna vishala ।
Manasi cha paritushte korthavan ko daridrah ॥

He is the poor one whose desires are limitless
When one is mentally satisfied, who is wealthy, who is poor?

जानामि धर्मं न च मे प्रवृत्ति: जानाम्यधर्मं न च मे निवृत्ति:  ।
केनापि देवेन हृदि स्थितेन यथा नियुक्तोऽस्मि तथा करोमि ॥ ६५३

Janami dharmam na cha me pravruttih janamyadharmam na cha me nivruttih ।
Kenapi deven hrudi stithena yatha niyukto asmi tatha karomi ॥


I know what is dharma yet I cannot get myself to follow it. I know what is adharma yet I cannot refrain from it. It is as if some force dwells in my heart and impels me to do what I do.

वाक्सायका वदनानिष्पतन्ति यैराहतः शोचति रात्र्यहानि ।
परस्य नामर्मसु ये पतन्ति तान्पण्डितो नावसृजेत्परेषु ॥ ६५४

Vaksayaka vadananishpatanti yairahatah shochati ratryahani ।
Parasya namarmasu ye patanti tanpandito navasrujetpareshu ॥

Barbed words emerge from the mouth, if they are aflame they cause commotion.Such words reaching others will offend them, wisemen never shoot barbs at others.

श्रवणायापि बहुभिर्यो न लभ्यः शृण्वन्तोऽपि बहवो यं न विद्युः।
आश्चर्यो वक्ता कुशलोऽस्य लब्धाश्चर्यो ज्ञाता कुशलानुशिष्टः ॥ ६५५

Shravanayapi bahubhiryo na labhyah shrunvato api bahavo na vidyuh ।
Ashcharyo vakta kushalo asya labdhashcharyo jnata kushalanushishtah ॥

Not possible to find many who have heard him, the many who have heard him remain unaware, it is a wonder to find someone who can speak about him and one who knows him (God)
