Why do you call your children cattle and say they are yours? What makes you a true parent? Why do you grieve and wail over one who has died? The mourning over the dead is all a false commotion. Why do you claim kinfolk as your own? They will not save you from the hands of Yama's messengers. Why do you call yourself mighty? See how at the funeral pyre you must be lifted by others. Says Tuka, place no trust in any of this. Hasten and take refuge in Panduranga.
