Swimming Sailor

Panchatantra

त्याज्यं न धैर्यं विधुरेपि दैवे धैर्यात् कदाचित् स्थितिमाप्नुयात् सः। याते समुद्रेपि हि पोतभंगे सांयात्रिको वाञ्छति कर्म एव

Meaning · English

Do not drop your courage when fate turns hard. Courage may yet find you ground. Even when the ship is wrecked, the sailor wants to keep swimming.

अर्थ · हिन्दी

भाग्य कठिन हो जाए तब भी धीरज मत छोड़ो। धीरज से कभी न कभी ठिकाना मिल जाता है। जहाज टूट जाए तब भी मल्लाह तैरकर पार जाना चाहता है।
