Mahabharata 34: Rare Go Those That Their Karma Know

Do thine karma, be not weary,
Let karma thy armour be,
He that what to do well knows,
So rare, one in thousand, goes.

Here is the transliteration of the original verse:

sva-karma kuru mā glāsīhkarmaņā bhava damshitah |
kŗtam hi yah abhi-jānātisahasre sah asti na asti cha || vana 32-9 ||

Let us know a few words: mā glāsīh = be not unwilling, disinclined, fatigued, weary;damshitah = armour, armed and equipped; sahasre sah asti= rare in a thousand he is; na asti cha= or not even (one in thousand, but less) .
