धर्म्यं यथा तथा युद्धं यदि स्यात्तर्हि संस्थितिः ।
नाशयेयुरलं मत्ताः परलोकभयोज्झिताः ॥ ३२ ॥

dharmyaṃ yathā tathā yuddhaṃ yadi syāttarhi saṃsthitiḥ |
nāśayeyuralaṃ mattāḥ paralokabhayojjhitāḥ || 32 ||

A war which is just, serves to establish order; but the giddy that are fearless of the future, destroy all order.
