A bald-headed man, his pate <br /> <br />Pained by the rays of the sun, <br /> <br />Desiring a shady spot, <br /> <br />Went by fate to the foot <br /> <br />Of a wood-apple tree. <br /> <br />Alas, there his head <br /> <br />Was smashed by a large <br /> <br />Falling fruit. <br /> <br />Verily, <br /> <br />Where goes a man deserted by fortune, <br /> <br />There do adversities follow him.<br /><br />Bhartrihari<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/a-bald-headed-man/
