Verse 7.136.33

आयुर्वायुविघट्टिताभ्रपटलीलम्बाम्बुवद्भङ्गुरं भोगा मेघवितानमध्यविलसत्सौदामनीचञ्चलाः ।
लोला यौवनलालना जलरयः कायः क्षणापायवान्पुत्र त्रासमुपेत्य संसृतिवशान्निर्वाणमन्विष्यतां ॥ ३३ ॥

āyurvāyuvighaṭṭitābhrapaṭalīlambāmbuvadbhaṅguraṃ bhogā meghavitānamadhyavilasatsaudāmanīcañcalāḥ |
lolā yauvanalālanā jalarayaḥ kāyaḥ kṣaṇāpāyavānputra trāsamupetya saṃsṛtivaśānnirvāṇamanviṣyatāṃ || 33 ||

Life is but a breath of air, and overhung by the clouds of calamities, and is as frail as a drop of falling water; our enjoyments are a series of clouds interspersed by fickle and flickering lightnings;youth is fleeting and its pleasures are as the gliding waters, and the body is as transient as a moment; therefore O my child! attain thy felicity while in this world, and expect thy nirvana-extinction at the end.
