हृष्टा वाचस्तथा सत्त्वं योधानां यत्र भारत । न म्लायन्ते स्रजश्चैव ते तरन्ति रणे रिपून्॥६-४-२१॥

O Bhārata, where the warriors’ speech is spirited and their resolve is firm, and where their garlands do not wither—those men pass through the battle and prevail over their foes.

english translation

इष्टो वातः प्रविष्टस्य दक्षिणा प्रविविक्षतः । पश्चात्संसाधयत्यर्थं पुरस्तात्प्रतिषेधते॥६-४-२२॥

A favourable wind aids one who has entered; a rightward (southern/right-side) wind aids one who is about to enter. From behind it accomplishes the purpose; from the front it obstructs.

english translation

शब्दरूपरसस्पर्शगन्धाश्चाविष्कृताः शुभाः । सदा योधाश्च हृष्टाश्च येषां तेषां ध्रुवं जयः॥६-४-२३॥

For those whose perceptions of sound, form, taste, touch, and scent manifest as auspicious, and whose warriors remain ever confident and uplifted, victory is held to be certain.

english translation

अन्वेव वायवो वान्ति तथाभ्राणि वयांसि च । अनुप्लवन्ते मेघाश्च तथैवेन्द्रधनूंषि च॥६-४-२४॥

Favourable winds blow in accompaniment; likewise clouds and birds move in accord, the clouds drift along, and rainbows appear correspondingly.

english translation

एतानि जयमानानां लक्षणानि विशां पते । भवन्ति विपरीतानि मुमूर्षूणां जनाधिप॥६-४-२५॥

These are the signs of those advancing toward victory, O lord of the people; for those moving toward ruin, the very same signs appear in reversed form, O ruler.
