Devanagari script
ततो द्रोणं शिने: पौत्रो राजन् विव्याध पत्रिणा । दक्षिणं भुजमासाद्य पीडयन् भरतर्षभ,राजन! भरतश्रेष्ठ! तब शिनिके पौत्रने एक बाणसे द्रोणाचार्यकी दाहिनी भुजापर चोट करके उसे पीड़ा देते हुए आचार्यको घायल कर दिया
Transliteration
tato droṇaṃ śineḥ pautro rājan vivyādha pattriṇā | dakṣiṇaṃ bhujam āsādya pīḍayan bharatarṣabha ||
Translation
Sañjaya said: Then, O King, the grandson of Śini struck Droṇa with a feathered arrow. Hitting his right arm, he caused the preceptor pain and wounded him—an episode that underscores how, in the press of war, even revered teachers become targets when duty to one’s side overrides personal reverence.
