Yudhiṣṭhira’s Lament for Karṇa and Renunciation-Oriented Self-Assessment (शोक-प्रलापः / त्याग-प्रवृत्तिः)
Devanagari script
हत्वा नो विगतो मन्यु: शोको मां रुन्धयत्ययम् । हमने शूरवीरोंको मारा, पाप किया और अपने ही देशका विनाश कर डाला। शत्रुओंको मारकर हमारा क्रोध तो दूर हो गया, परंतु यह शोक मुझे निरन्तर घेरे रहता है
Transliteration
hatvā no vigato manyuḥ śoko māṃ rundhayaty ayam |
Translation
Yudhiṣṭhira said: “Having slain them, our anger has indeed subsided; yet this grief will not release me—it keeps hemming me in. We have killed heroic men, incurred sin, and brought ruin upon our own realm.”
