स्थितस्य च whether you stand, गतस्य च or moving, यस्य whosoever, आयुः life span, हीयते decreases, आत्मानम् about you, त्वम् you, अनुशोच grieve, अन्यम् about others, किम् why, अनुशोचसि are you grieving?
English Commentary
Whether you are static or moving, your lifespan decreases. Therefore, you should only grieve about yourself and not for any one else.
