            THE WAY OF THE WORLD
            
            In daily journeys of the sun
            
            Our little life is quickly done;
            
            In anxious duties of the day
            
            The hours unnoticed slip away;
            
            Though birth and age are ever near,
            
            And grief and death, we do not fear:
            
            The world forgets its sore distress,
            
            Goes mad with wine of heedlessness.

Tawney

            
            Morn after morn dispels the dark,
            
              Bearing our lives away;
            
            Absorbed in cares we fail to mark
            
              How swift our years decay;
            
            Some maddening draught hath drugged our souls,
            
              In love with vital breath,
            
            Which still the same sad chart unrolls,
            
              Birth, eld, disease, and death.

Mādhavānanda

            
              आदित्यस्य गतागतैरहरह: संक्षीयते जीवितं
            
                व्यापारैर्बहुकार्यभारगुरुभि: कालोऽपि न ज्ञायते ।
            
              दृष्ट्वा जन्मजराविपत्तिमरणं त्रासश्च नोत्पद्यते
            
                पीत्वा मोहमयीं प्रमादमदिरामुन्मत्तभूतं जगत् ।।४३।।
            
            43. Daily, with the rising and setting of the sun, life shortens, and time (i.e., its flight) is not felt on account of affairs heavily burdened with manifold activities. Neither is fear produced at beholding birth, death, old age, and sufferings. (Alas), the world has become mad by drinking the stupefying wine of delusion.
