Shloka 71
Śalya–Bhīma Gadāyuddham (मद्रराज-भीमसेन गदायुद्धम्)
बाह्[माभ्यन्तरं चैव चरन्तौ मार्गमुत्तमम् । ददृशाते महात्मानौ सपक्षाविव पर्वताौ,वे दोनों महामनस्वी वीर बाहर और भीतर चोट करनेके उत्तम पैंतरे बदलते हुए पंखयुक्त दो पर्वतोंके समान दृष्टिगोचर हो रहे थे
bāhyābhyantaraṃ caiva carantau mārgam uttamam | dadṛśāte mahātmānau sapakṣāv iva parvatau ||
サञ्जयは言った。二人の大いなる魂の英雄は、外からも内からも打ち込む最上の戦いぶりで動き回り、翼ある二つの山のように見えた。この光景は、戦の狂熱の中で、武勇と鍛え抜かれた技が戦士をほとんど自然の元素のごとく見せる一方、争いがなお道義の代価を取り立て続けることを示している。

The verse highlights disciplined martial excellence—mastery of ‘outer’ and ‘inner’ approaches in combat—while implicitly reminding the listener that such awe-inspiring power operates within the larger, morally weighty setting of dharmic conflict.
Sañjaya describes two mighty warriors maneuvering with superior battle-technique, alternating external and internal strikes, and appearing formidable—likened through a vivid simile to two mountains endowed with wings.
