Summary

Description
English: Bhagavad Gita is one of the scriptures of Hinduism, its best known. It has been widely translated in Indian languages as well as numerous non-Indian languages. Over 200 translations exist in the English language alone, with the first published in 1785 by Charles Wilkins.

The above image shows verse 6.1, in Sanskrit language and Devanagari script. It translates to:

It is not those who lack energy
 nor those who refrain from action,
 but those who work without expecting reward
 who attain the goal of meditation,
 Theirs is true renunciation. (6.1, Ekanath Easwaran)
