In English
As the soul experiences infancy, youth, and old age in this body, so finally it passes into another; the wise have no delusion about this.
Translated by Shri Purohit Swami
Just as the embodied soul passes through childhood, youth, and old age in this body, so too does it pass into another body; the steadfast one does not grieve over this.
Translated by Swami Sivananda
