There is no security in this world (with Hindi translation)

There is no security in this world.
You go where you go,
and you do your best.

Nagna says:
The only peace
is at the Mother's breast.

--Nagna Devidas (Donald Traxler)

इस दुनिया में कोई सुरक्षा नहीं है
जाओ जहां आप जाते हैं,
और अपना सर्वश्रेष्ठ करें
नग्न कहते हैं:
केवल शांति
माँ के स्तन में है
