Poem 615

In plain words

Though one has wealth and grain and a righteous nature, there is the worry of having no children; though one swaggers as a man of great learning, one suffers for want of a job; though one has devotion to God and a righteous nature, one frets greatly at having no money; the poorest man, who flounders with nothing to eat, has ever so many children; though there are riches, and contentment too, within there lies a great greed.
