Note on the transliteration:
The transliteration system of the BP/TLB is based on the Unicode/UTF-8 system. However, there may be difficulties with some of the letters – particularly on PC/Windows-based systems, but not so much on the Mac. We have chosen the most accepted older and traditional systems of transliteration against, e.g, Wylie for Tibetan, since with Unicode it is possible, in Sanskrit and Tibetan, etc., to represent one sound with one letter in almost all the cases (excepting Sanskrit and Tibetan aspirated letters, and Tibetan tsa, tsha, dza). We thus do not use the Wylie system which widely employs two letters for one sound (ng, ny, sh, zh etc.).
 
Important:
We ask you in particular to note the use of the ’ apostrophe and not the ' representing the avagrāha in Sanskrit, and most important the ’a-chuṅ in Tibetan. On the Mac the ’ is Alt-M.

1. =1,31 
31. One may live a hundred years, yet he is subject to the lord of death; one may reach old age, or else he is carried off by disease. 
āyur divā ca rātrau ca caratas tiṣṭhatas tathā |
nadīnāṃ vā yathā sroto gacchate na nivartate |1,32|

2. =1,32 
32. He who is (always) changing without ceasing, decaying day and night, filled with the anguish of birth and death, is like the fish thrown in hot water. 
yeṣāṃ rātri divāpāye hy āyur alpataraṃ bhavet |
alpodake va matsyānāṃ kā nu teṣāṃ ratir bhavet |1,33| 
老至苦纒身 晝夜多痛惱
辛楚有千般 如魚入灰火 312
江河無停止 駛流去不迴

3. =1,33 
33. This life is fleeting away day and night; it is unstable like the stream of a great river; one goes on not to return again? 
parijīrṇam idaṃ rūpaṃ roga nīḍaṃ prabhaṅguram |
bhetsyate pūty asaṃdehaṃ maraṇāntaṃ hi jīvitam |1,34|

4. =1,34 
34. Man is like a fish in a shallow pool of water; day and night this life is passing away; what subject of rejoicing is there in so brief a thing? 
aciraṃ bata kāyo ’yaṃ pṛthivīm adhiśeṣyate |
śunyo vyapeta vijñāno nirastaṃ vā kaḍaṅgaram |1,35|1  
四大聚集身 無常詎久留
地種散壞時 神識空何用 334  
4. =1,35

5. =1,35 
35 (148). The end of life is death; this body bent down by age, this receptacle of disease, is rapidly wasting away; this mass of corruption will soon be destroyed.

6. =1,36 
36 (41). Alas! this body will soon lie on the earth unnoticed, empty: senseless, thrown away in a cemetery like a billet of wood. 
anena pūtikāyena hy ātureṇa prabhaṅguṇā |
nigacchatha parāṃ śāntiṃ yoga kṣemam anuttaram |1,37|

grub daṅ bde ba bla med pa || źi mchog don du gñer bar gyis ||7  
7. =1,37 
37. Continually afflicted by disease, always emitting some impurity, this body, undermined by age and death, what is the use of it? 
iha varṣaṃ kariṣyāmi hemantaṃ grīṣmam eva ca |
bālo vicintayaty evam antarāyaṃ na paśyati |1,38| 
今歳雖云在 冬夏不久停
凡夫貪世樂 中間不驚怖 357
父母與兄弟 妻子并眷屬
無常來牽引 無能救濟者 368  
7. =1,38  8. =1,20 
dgun ka daṅ ni dpyid ka daṅ || dbyar ka ’di dag bya’o źes ||

8. =1,38

9. =1,39 
38 (286). " This (abode) will do for winter and (this) for summer;" thus ponders the rapidly decaying fool who has not seen the danger. 
na santi putrās trāṇāya na pitā nāpi bāndhavāḥ |
antakenābhibhūtasya na hi trāṇā bhavanti te |1,40| 
父母與兄弟 妻子并眷屬
無常來牽引 無能救濟者 369  
9. =1,40 
’chi ba’i dus la bab pa na || bu rnams (4)skyabs su mi ’gyur źiṅ ||

10. =1,40 
39 (288). Thou who art surrounded by children and flocks, children are no refuge, nor are father, mother, and kinsfolk; thou art without a refuge!
