ઉતરા, ઉતરા શું કરે? સાંભળ મારી માત; રણમાં જ્યારે ધા પડે, ત્યારે ઉતરા દે નહીં હાથ.

utarā, utarā śuṁ karē? sāṁbhaḷa mārī māta; raṇamāṁ jyārē dhā paḍē, tyārē utarā dē nahīṁ hātha.

Literally: Why do you keep crying 'Uttara, Uttara'? Listen, my mother; when blows are struck in battle, Uttara does not lend a hand;
What it means: One should rely on one's own strength and courage in a crisis rather than waiting for favorable external conditions.
