क्लैब्यं मा सम गम: पार्थ नैतत् त्वय्युपपद्यते । क्षुद्रे हृदयदौर्बल्यं त्यक्त्वोत्तिष्ठ परंतप
klaibyaṁ mā sma gamaḥ pārtha naitat tvayy upapadyate | kṣudraṁ hṛdaya-daurbalyaṁ tyaktvottiṣṭha paraṁtapa ||
হে পাৰ্থ! ক্লৈব্যত (কাপুৰুষতাত) নপৰিবা; ই তোমাৰ বাবে শোভন নহয়। হে পৰন্তপ! হৃদয়ৰ এই তুচ্ছ দুৰ্বলতা ত্যাগ কৰি উঠি থিয় হোৱা।
