Death overtook them before (satisfaction of) their desires, from which the hands of death
separated them. They did not provide for themselves during health of their bodies, and did not
take lesson during their youth.
Are these people who are in youth waiting for the backbending old age, and those enjoying
fresh health waiting for ailments, and these living persons looking for the hour of death?
When the hour of departure would be close and the journey at hand, with pangs of grief and
trouble, suffering of sorrows and suffocation of saliva, and the time would arrive for calling
relations and friends for help and changing sides on the bed.
