Verse 6.118.16

अजरामरमात्मानमबुद्ध्वा परिरोदिति ।
हा हतोऽहमनाथोऽहं नष्टोऽस्मीति वपुर्व्यये ॥ १६ ॥

ajarāmaramātmānamabuddhvā pariroditi |
hā hato'hamanātho'haṃ naṣṭo'smīti vapurvyaye || 16 ||

Men bewail for themselves as lost upon the loss of their bodies, and exclaim as it saying "Oh I am dead and gone" and so on, not knowing that their souls are ever undecaying and imperishable.
