WORD BY WORD
TRANSLATION
 | These personalities, who were great souls, are now known only by their names. They exist only in accounts from the past, and only their fame remains on the earth.
|
PURPORT
| | Although one may consider oneself to be a great, powerful leader, he will ultimately end up as a name in a long list of names. In other words, it is useless to be attached to power and position in the material world.
