I was wonder if this is the right if there is an idiom of it.

Sorry if this is off-topic. If you are a mod that read this and it does not seem fit. Feel free to remove it.

So, tomorrow I was about to have an English presentation about Buddhist funeral.

I want to put this idiom into my presentation but I'm not aware of it in English.

The meaning behind this idiom is that it mean our body made up of 4 elements, driven by 3 marks of existence, contains 1 soul in our body, and good and bad karma is guiding our life.

Here is my translation: “The 4 carry, the three driven, one on the casket, and lead by the two.”

I tried to make it rhyme so I can memorize it. But I would prefer the original one that already exist.
