ये युध्यन्ते प्रधनेषु शूरासो ये तनूत्यजः । ये वा सहस्रदक्षिणास् तांश् चिद् एवापि गच्छतात् ॥
ye yudhyante pradhaneṣu śūrāso ye tanūtyajaḥ | ye vā sahasradakṣiṇās tāṃś cid evāpi gacchatāt ||
Devanagari rendered by HREEM from the edition's roman (IAST) text; the IAST is the edition's own.
The heroes who contend in war and boldly cast their lives away, Or who give guerdon thousandfold, even to those let him depart.
Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
