गिलितानीन्द्रलक्षाणि बुद्बुदानीव वारिणि ।
मां जीवितनिबद्धास्थं विहसिष्यन्ति साधवः ॥ २३ ॥

gilitānīndralakṣāṇi budbudānīva vāriṇi |
māṃ jīvitanibaddhāsthaṃ vihasiṣyanti sādhavaḥ || 23 ||

Many Indras have been swallowed up like bubbles in the ocean of eternity; hence the like expectation of my longevity, is ridiculous to the wise.
