When one's house is ablaze The vessel taken out Is the one that is useful, Not the one left burnt inside.... So when the world is ablaze With [the fires of] aging and death, One should take out [one's wealth] by giving: What is given is well salvaged. What is given yields pleasant fruit, But not so what is not given. Thieves take it away, or kings, It gets burnt by fire or is lost. Then in the end one leaves the body Along with one's possessions. Having understood this, the wise person Should enjoy himself but also give. Having given and enjoyed as fits his means, Blameless he goes to the heavenly state.
