Shloka 32
अर्जुनागमनम्
Arjuna’s Arrival and Reunion on the Sacred Mountain
त॑ मृगेन्द्रमिवायान्तं प्रभिन्नमिव वारणम् | ददृशु: सर्वभूतानि बाणकार्मुकधारिणम्,मदवर्षी कुंजर और मृगराजकी भाँति आते हुए धनुष-बाणधारी भीमसेनको उस समय सब भूतोंने देखा
taṁ mṛgendram ivāyāntaṁ prabhinnam iva vāraṇam | dadṛśuḥ sarvabhūtāni bāṇa-kārmuka-dhāriṇam ||
قال فايشَمبايانا: عندئذٍ أبصرَتْ جميعُ الكائناتِ بهيماسينا مُقبِلًا—كأسدٍ سيّدٍ مهيب، وكفيلٍ هائجٍ سكرانَ بالهياج—حاملًا القوسَ والسهام. ويُبرزُ المشهدُ أنَّ القوّةَ الصالحةَ إذا وُجِّهتْ إلى غايةٍ عادلةٍ غدتْ مُلهمةً للرهبة في أعينِ العالمِ كلّه.

Bhīmasena is seen approaching with bow and arrows; his advance is compared to a lion and a rut-maddened elephant, emphasizing his formidable energy and readiness for action.
