Fire-escape deliberation
वायुदेव उवाच कुन्तीमातर्ममाप्येतद् रोचते यद् वयं जले । सुहृज्जनवृता: पार्थ विहरेम यथासुखम्,वासुदेव बोले--कुन्तीनन्दन! मेरी भी ऐसी ही इच्छा हो रही है कि हमलोग सुहृदोंके साथ वहाँ चलकर सुखपूर्वक जलविहार करें
Vāyudeva uvāca: Kuntīmātar mamāpy etad rocata yad vayaṁ jale | suhṛjjanavṛtāḥ Pārtha viharema yathāsukham ||
Vāsudeva (Kṛṣṇa) sprach: „O Sohn der Kuntī, auch mir gefällt dies: Lass uns, von wohlgesinnten Freunden umgeben, ins Wasser gehen und dort nach Herzenslust unbeschwert verweilen.“
वायुदेव उवाच
Educational Q&A

Vāyudeva responds to Pārtha (Arjuna), expressing approval of the plan to go to the water and enjoy recreation together, accompanied by friendly companions.
