जल पीत्वा मृतान् पश्य पिबतो<न््यांश्व॒ मारिष
Translation
Dijo Sañjaya: Oh Arjuna, el más excelso de los héroes, mira hacia allí: algunos murieron después de beber agua, y otros perdieron la vida mientras bebían. Muchos soldados, amantes de sus parientes, dejaron atrás a sus seres queridos y se ven, aquí y allá, yaciendo sin aliento en esa gran batalla.
