“Jano janamhi sambaddho, People are attached to people;
janamevassito jano; people depend on people;
Jano janena heṭhīyati, people are hurt by people;
heṭheti ca jano janaṁ. and people hurt people.
Ko hi tassa janenattho, So what’s the point of people,
janena janitena vā; or those born of people?
Janaṁ ohāya gacchaṁ taṁ, Go, abandon these people,
heṭhayitvā bahuṁ janan”ti. who’ve hurt so many people.
