12.172.17 The python-vowed sage to Prahlada

दिवि संचरमाणानि ह्रस्वानि च महान्ति च । ज्योतींषि च यथाकालं पतमानानि लक्षये ॥

divi saṃcaramāṇāni hrasvāni ca mahānti ca | jyotīṃṣi ca yathākālaṃ patamānāni lakṣaye ||

The lights that move across the sky, small and great, I see falling, each in its time.

आकाश में घूमने वाले छोटे-बड़े ज्योति-पिंडों को भी मैं समय आने पर गिरते देखता हूँ।

Meaning today and contextआज के लिए अर्थ और संदर्भ

Even what looks eternal, the stars themselves, has its season. Nothing we hold is more permanent than that.

जो शाश्वत लगता है, स्वयं तारे भी, उनका भी समय होता है। हमारे हाथ की कोई चीज़ उनसे अधिक स्थायी नहीं।

Mahabharata 12.172.17: The sage says even the stars and lights of heaven, small and great, fall in their time.
