Rendered in English it will be:

When X is present (satva = existence/presence. satve is the saptami
vibhakti, locative case), then Y is present. [satva is not satya, only the
latter word will mean reality.)

When X is absent (abhaave), then Y is absent.

When cause is there, effect is there. When cause is absent, effect is also
absent.  This is the meaning/purport and structure of the Sanskrit
statements you presented.
