Sanskrit
शौर्यं तेजो धृतिर्दाक्ष्यं युद्धे चाप्यपलायनम् । दानमीश्वरभावश्च क्षात्रं कर्म स्वभावजम् ॥ ४३ ॥
śauryaṃ tejo dhṛtir dākṣyaṃ yuddhe cāpy apalāyanam dānam īśvara-bhāvaś ca kṣātraṃ karma svabhāvajam
Translation
Prowess, splendour, firmness, dexterity, and also not flying from battle, generosity, the nature of a ruler, are the Kshattriya duty, born of his own nature.

Explanation
Prowess, splendour, firmness, refusal to flee battle, generosity, a ruler’s bearing — this is, point for point, a description of what Arjuna already is, and what the whole poem has been arguing he must not abandon. Coming this late in the text, the verse plays as a quiet callback to chapter 1: the very qualities Arjuna set down along with his bow at 1.47 are here named as his birthright, not incidental to the argument but its long-deferred conclusion.
