Inside it is your true form

Fooled by transitory form,
I've made a lot of useless shadows with my age increasing.
Lost in following the shadows amidst the shadows,
I have lost sight of even the shadow of my true form.
When can I return to my home?

Shadows amidst shadows,
Your true form is in them.
Don't look anywhere else for it.

Freshness is prevailing everywhere today as usual.
