Song 61

This is based on the verse from Mahabharata:

सर्वेक्षयान्तानिचया: पतनान्ता: समुच्छूया:।संयोगाविप्रयोगान्तामरणान्तचजीवितम्[all that are collected will be gone; all that stands will fall, all that come together will be separated and all that are born will die.—a rough translation by me]—Shanti Parva, 27.31,330.20,—P. V. Kane, History of Dharmasastra, Vol. I. Part I. Ch. 32. The Two Epics. Fn. 404. P. 372

61 ஒரு உண்மை

இழப்பதற்கென்று ஒன்று இல்லாத வரையில்

என்றும் வாழ்வில் மகிழ்ச்சியே

சேர்ப்பதெல்லாம் இழப்பதற்கே, இந்த

உண்மை அறிந்தால் நன்மையே

நிற்பதும் ஒருநாள் வீழுமே

பிறப்பின் இறுதி மரணமே, இது

பாரதம் கூறும் உண்மையே

 61 A truth

If we didn’t have anything to lose

There will be joy in life

All that are collected is only to give up

If we realize this truth there is joy

All that stands will fall

Friendship will end in separation

Death is the end of life

This is what Mahabharata tells.
