दर्शनीयास्तु काम्बोजा: शुकपत्रपरिच्छदा: । वहन्तो नकुलं शीघ्रं तावकानभिदुद्रुवु:,तोतेकी पाँखके समान रोमवाले दर्शनीय काम्बोजदेशीयः घोड़े नकुलको वहन करते हुए बड़ी शीघ्रताके साथ आपके सैनिकोंकी ओर दौड़े
darśanīyās tu kāmbojāḥ śukapatra-paricchadāḥ | vahanto nakulaṃ śīghraṃ tāvakān abhidudruvuḥ ||
サンジャヤは言った。見目麗しいカーンボージャの馬は、淡い葉のような覆いをまとい、鸚鵡の翼のような毛並みを見せつつ、ナクラを乗せて、あなたの軍勢へ向けて疾風のごとく突進した。
