Sanskrit Original
गुन कृत सन्यपात नहिं केही। कोउ न मान मद तजेउ निबेही।। जोबन ज्वर केहि नहिं बलकावा। ममता केहि कर जस न नसावा।। मच्छर काहि कलंक न लावा। काहि न सोक समीर डोलावा।। चिंता साँपिनि को नहिं खाया। को जग जाहि न ब्यापी माया।। कीट मनोरथ दारु सरीरा। जेहि न लाग घुन को अस धीरा।। सुत बित लोक ईषना तीनी। केहि के मति इन्ह कृत न मलीनी।। यह सब माया कर परिवारा। प्रबल अमिति को बरनै पारा।। सिव चतुरानन जाहि डेराहीं। अपर जीव केहि लेखे माहीं।।
guna kṛta sanyapāta nahiṃ kēhī. kōu na māna mada tajēu nibēhī.. jōbana jvara kēhi nahiṃ balakāvā. mamatā kēhi kara jasa na nasāvā.. macchara kāhi kalaṃka na lāvā. kāhi na sōka samīra ḍōlāvā.. ciṃtā sāompini kō nahiṃ khāyā. kō jaga jāhi na byāpī māyā.. kīṭa manōratha dāru sarīrā. jēhi na lāga ghuna kō asa dhīrā.. suta bita lōka īṣanā tīnī. kēhi kē mati inha kṛta na malīnī.. yaha saba māyā kara parivārā. prabala amiti kō baranai pārā.. siva caturānana jāhi ḍērāhīṃ. apara jīva kēhi lēkhē māhīṃ..
Who is not thrown out of his mental equipoise by the combined action of the three Gunas (modes of Prakrti) as by the synchronous derangement of the three humours of the body (which generally proves fatal to the victim according to the principles of ayurveda)? None has escaped the stings of pride and arrogance. Who does not get wildly excited under an attack of fever in the form of youth and whose good reputation is not marred by worldly attachment? Who does not incur obloquy through envy and who is not shaken by the blast of grief? Who is not bitten by the serpent of care? And is there anyone in this world who is not overcome by Maya (the delusive potency of God)? Again, is there anyone so resolute of mind, whose body is not being consumed by desire as a piece of wood is eaten away by a wooded-borer? Whose mind has not been polluted by the threefold desire-the desire of progeny, the desire of wealth and the desire of fame? All these constitute the retinue of Maya, formidable and infinite in number, more than any can tell. Even Lord Siva and the four-faced Brahma (the Creator) are ever afraid of these; of what account, then, are other creatures?
