Bhagavad Gita As It Is -
Chapter 9 Text 21
te tam bhuktva svarga-lokam visalam
ksine punye martya-lokam visanti
evam trayi-dharmam anuprapanna
gatagatam kama-kama labhante

te--they; tam--that; bhuktva--enjoying; svarga-lokam--heaven; visalam--vast; ksine--being exhausted; punye--the results of their pious activities; martya-lokam--to the mortal earth; visanti--fall down; evam--thus; trayi--of the three Vedas; dharmam--doctrines; anuprapannah--following; gata-agatam--death and birth; kama-kamah--desiring sense enjoyments; labhante--attain.

TRANSLATION

When they have thus enjoyed vast heavenly sense pleasure and the results of their pious activities are exhausted, they return to this mortal planet again. Thus those who seek sense enjoyment by adhering to the principles of the three Vedas achieve only repeated birth and death.
