Do not yield to impotence, O Arjuna, son of Pritha. It does not befit you. Cast off this mean weakness of the heart! Stand up, O conqueror of foes!

Shri Purohit Swami

हे पृथानन्दन अर्जुन ! इस नपुंसकताको मत प्राप्त हो; क्योंकि तुम्हारेमें यह उचित नहीं है। हे परंतप ! हृदयकी इस तुच्छ दुर्बलताका त्याग करके युद्धके लिये खड़े हो जाओ।

Swami Ramsukhdas

हे पार्थ क्लीव (कायर) मत बनो। यह तुम्हारे लिये अशोभनीय है, हे ! परंतप हृदय की क्षुद्र दुर्बलता को त्यागकर खड़े हो जाओ।

Swami Tejomayananda
