In English
In childhood, man is immersed in playing and frolicking, In youth, he succumbs to temptations of cupid. In middle age, he spends all his time in amassing wealth. In old age, instead of contemplating on God, He leads a life of discontentment. Unable to give up his bad habits, Not having the strength and interest To follow the path of devotion, He gets caught up in the quagmire of action and reaction and ultimately meets his doom. [Telugu Poem]
