do not grieve..your grief wil serve no purpose except making your detractors happy

 

अनवाप्यं च शोकेन शरीरं परिशुष्यति।

अमित्राश्च प्रहृष्यन्ति मा स्म शोके मनः कृथा॥

त्वं you शोके मा do not, never स्मः ever मनः mind कृथा apply, set on, subject yourself अवेहि understand शोकेन by grieving सर्वं अनवाप्यं एव everything is never achieved, nothing is achieved शोकेन through grief शरीरं the body परिशुष्यति becomes weak, lean, emaciated, loses all its verve तव your शोकं grief आलोक्य seeing अमित्राः who are not friends, adversaries, enemies प्रहृष्यन्ति are supremely happy, become supremely happy
