Verse 6.78.4
हिमाशनिरिवाम्भोजे जरा निपतनोन्मुखी ।
आयुर्गलत्यविरतं जलं करतलादिव ॥ ४ ॥
himāśanirivāmbhoje jarā nipatanonmukhī |
āyurgalatyavirataṃ jalaṃ karatalādiva || 4 ||
As the arrowy snows rend the lotus leaves, so is our old age ready to batter and shatter our frames; and the cup of our life is drizzling away day by day, as the water held in the palm falls away by sliding drops.
