स वै मृत्युं मृत्युरिवात्ति भूत्वा ह्येवं विद्वान्योऽभिहन्तीह कामान् ॥
In plain words
He becomes death to death itself and eats it — the man who knows this and kills off his desires, here, in this life.
Close to the Sanskrit
He indeed, having become like death, devours death — he who, knowing thus, strikes down desires here.
