Dhammapada · Verso 334

Kapilamacchavatthu

Pali

Manujassa pamattacārino,
Taṇhā vaḍḍhati māluvā viya;
So plavatī hurā huraṁ,
Phalamicchaṁva vanasmi vānaro.

English

When a man lives heedlessly,
craving grows in them like a camel’s foot creeper.
They jump from one thing to the next, like a langur
greedy for fruit in a forest grove.
