Dhṛtarāṣṭra’s Appraisal of Arjuna’s Strategic Supremacy
Devanagari script
वधे नूनं भवेच्छान्तिस्तयोर्वा फाल्गुनस्य च | नतु हन्तार्जुनस्यास्ति जेता चास्य न विद्यते
Transliteration
vadhe nūnaṃ bhavecchāntistayor vā phālgunasya ca | na tu hantārjunasya asti jetā cāsya na vidyate ||
Translation
ধৃতৰাষ্ট্ৰ ক’লে—শান্তি বোধ হয় নিশ্চিতভাৱে বধৰ দ্বাৰাই আহিব—সিহঁতৰ বধে বা ফাল্গুনৰ বধে। কিয়নো অৰ্জুনক বধ কৰিব পৰা কোনো নাই, আৰু তাক সত্যই জয় কৰিব পৰা কোনোও নাই।
