Beaten Down
“කේනස්සුබ්භාහතෝ ලෝකෝ, කේනස්සු පරිවාරිතෝ; කේන සල්ලේන ඕතිණ්ණෝ, කිස්ස ධූපායිතෝ සදා”ති.
“By what is the world beaten down? By what is it surrounded? What dart has laid it low? With what is it always fuming?”
“මච්චුනාබ්භාහතෝ ලෝකෝ, ජරාය පරිවාරිතෝ; තණ්හාසල්ලේන ඕතිණ්ණෝ, ඉච්ඡාධූපායිතෝ සදා”ති.
“The world is beaten down by death. It’s surrounded by old age. The dart of craving has struck it down. It’s always fuming with desire.”
