Today's Subhashita.

वर्धते  न  चिरं  लोके  वंशलक्ष्मीरसन्ततिः   |
स्वल्पाSवशेषित स्नेहवर्तिमालेव   दीपिका  || -सुभषितरत्नाकर

अर्थ -      किसी परिवार  में  समृद्धि तथा  सन्तति  चिर काल  तक
उसी प्रकार वृद्धि प्राप्त नहीं करती है जैसे कि तैल और बाती बहुत
कम हो जाने  पर एक दिये की स्थिति हो जाती है ||

Vardhate  na chiram loke vamshalakshnmirasmtatih.
Svalpaavasheshitasnehavartimaalena  deepikaa.

Vardhate = grow.    Na = not.     Chiram = for  long time.
Loke = in this worldVamshalakshmirasantatih = Vmshalakshmih +
+asantatihVmshalakshmi = family fortune.   Asantatih = not having
any offspring (children).   Svalpaavasheshita = svalpa +
avasheshita.     Svalpa =  very small amount.   Avasheshita +
remaining.     Snehavartimaalena= sneha+ vartimaalena.
Sneha = oil.    Vartimaaleva =  vartimaalaa +iva.
Vartimaala = cotton wick of a lamp.    Iva = like..

i.e.       The prosperity and offspring of a family do not grow
for a long time , and its condition is just like an earthen lamp in
which very little oil and the cotton wick remains.
