Translation

Sañjaya said: With many dreadful weapons raised aloft, and with arrows stained in blood, Karṇa pierced each of them—one by one—again and again with his shafts. The scene underscores the grim momentum of battle, where prowess and resolve drive men to relentless violence, even as the moral weight of slaughter silently accumulates.
