नहिते विग्रहं वीरा: कुर्वन्ति कुरुभि: सह । अविनाशेन लोकस्य काड्क्षन्ते पाण्डवा: स्वकम्‌,“वीर पाण्डव कौरवोंके साथ युद्ध नहीं कर रहे हैं, वे जनसंहार किये बिना ही अपना राज्य पाना चाहते हैं

Transliteration

na hi te vigrahaṃ vīrāḥ kurvanti kurubhiḥ saha | avināśena lokasya kāṅkṣante pāṇḍavāḥ svakam ||

Translation

সেই বীর পাণ্ডবেরা কৌরবদের সঙ্গে যুদ্ধ করতে চান না। জনসাধারণের বিনাশ না ঘটিয়ে, তারা নিজেদের ন্যায্য রাজ্যই লাভ করতে চায়।
