Shloka 34
तौ तु स्थितौ महाराज समरे युद्धशालिनौ । अन्योन्यं प्रतिसंरब्धावन्योन्यवधकाड्क्षिणौ,महाराज! युद्धमें शोभा पानेवाले वे दोनों वीर परस्पर कुपित हो एक-दूसरेके वधकी इच्छासे संग्रामके लिये खड़े हुए थे
tau tu sthitau mahārāja samare yuddhaśālinau | anyonyaṃ pratisaṃrabdhāv anyonyavadhakāṅkṣiṇau ||
قال سانجيا: «أيها الملك، إن هذين البطلين—المتألّقين في ساحة القتال—وقفا متقابلين في الميدان، وقد استبدّ بهما الغضب، وكلٌّ منهما يتطلّع إلى قتل الآخر.»
