एष व: शाश्वत: पन्था: पूर्व: पूर्वतरै: कृत: । सम्भावयध्वमात्मानमव्यग्रमनसो युधि
eṣa vaḥ śāśvataḥ panthāḥ pūrvaḥ pūrvataraiḥ kṛtaḥ | sambhāvayadhvam ātmānam avyagramanaso yudhi ||
ສັນຊະຍະກ່າວວ່າ: «ນີ້ແມ່ນເສັ້ນທາງອັນຖາວອນຂອງພວກເຈົ້າ ເປັນທາງເກົ່າແກ່ທີ່ບັນພະບຸລຸດໄດ້ວາງໄວ້. ດັ່ງນັ້ນ ໃນກາງສົງຄາມ ຈົ່ງມີໃຈສະຫງົບ ບໍ່ວຸ້ນວາຍ ແລະຈົ່ງຊູກຍົກກຽດສັກສີຂອງຕົນ—ສະແດງວິລະກຳໃນສົງຄາມ ເພື່ອໄດ້ຊື່ສຽງອັນຄວນຄ່າ ແລະການນັບຖື».

Educational Q&A
The verse frames warfare, for those bound by kṣatriya-dharma, as an inherited and time-honored duty: one should enter battle with a steady, undistracted mind and uphold personal and familial honor through courageous conduct.
Sañjaya, narrating events to Dhṛtarāṣṭra, conveys an exhortation to the warriors: the course they are taking is the traditional path of their lineage, and they should fight with composure, seeking rightful renown rather than acting from agitation or fear.
