Dhammapada · 7.2

Uyyuñjanti satīmanto, na nikete ramanti te;Haṃsāva pallalaṃ hitvā, okamokaṃ jahanti te.

Uyyunjanti satimanto, na nikete ramanti te; Hamsava pallalam hitva, okamokam jahanti te.

The mindful exert themselves; they take delight in no dwelling. Like swans that leave a pond, they abandon home after home.
