For death is certain for one that is born and birth is certain for one that dies. Therefore, you should not grieve for that which is inevitable.
Whatever is born dies and whatever dies comes to life; thus this wheel of life revolves continually. Just as the sun-rises and sets without interruption, so birth and death are difficult to avoid (155-160). All the three worlds perish at the time of dissolution, and therefore, origination and end are inevitable. If you accept this, why do you lament? Since you know it, why don't you grasp it fully? If you look at it from any angle, you will realise that there is no cause for grief.

It is talking about the death of the body and not the life force(jiva)
It is indestructible and eternal. so there is no need to regret. One who realises this can always be happy.

Everything emanates from Consciousness
Is sustained in Consciousness,
Abides in Consciousness,
Finally merges in Consciousness,
That which remains ultimately is Consciousness.
Hence paramatman within each is eternal.

Bliss ... yes but not happiness. Happiness is nothing but one face of the coin where the other face is of sorrow. Bliss is the only true nature of 'me'.
