Norton F. W. Hazeldine translation
Vain are the worldly desires upon which men set their hearts: like a fool who in a mirror looks and wisdom there perceives, So do the desires of men deceive them, for all created things do surely perish. And though the like may prosper for awhile, there comes unerringly the fate to all structures that upon the sands are built! They from sight for aye do pass away.
