मूर्खश्चिरायुर्जातोऽपि तस्माज्जातमृतो वरः । मृतः स चाल्पदुःखाय यावज्जीवं जडो दहेत् ॥

mūrkhaścirāyurjāto’pi tasmājjātamṛto varaḥ | mṛtaḥ sa cālpaduḥkhāya yāvajjīvaṃ jaḍo dahet ||

Shlok Meaning

English Translation

A still-born son as superior to a foolish son endowed with a long life. The first causes grief for but a moment while the latter like a blazing fire consumes his parents in grief for life

Hindi Translation

एक ऐसा बालक जो जन्मते वक़्त मृत था, एक मुर्ख दीर्घायु बालक से बेहतर है. पहला बालक तो एक क्षण के लिए दुःख देता है, दूसरा बालक उसके माँ बाप को जिंदगी भर दुःख की अग्नि में जलाता है.
