तपस्तेपतुरव्यग्रौ विसृज्य त्रिदिवौकस: । एष ते कथित: पार्थ नारायणजयो मृथे
tapas tepatūr avyagrau visṛjya tridivaukasaḥ | eṣa te kathitaḥ pārtha nārāyaṇajayo mṛdhe ||
ತ್ರಿದಿವವಾಸಿಗಳನ್ನು ವಿದಾಯಗೊಳಿಸಿ, ಅವ್ಯಗ್ರಮನಸ್ಸಿನಿಂದ ಅವರು ತಪಸ್ಸು ಮಾಡತೊಡಗಿದರು. ಓ ಪಾರ್ಥಾ! ಯುದ್ಧದಲ್ಲಿ ನಾರಾಯಣನ ಜಯವೃತ್ತಾಂತವನ್ನು ನಾನು ನಿನಗೆ ಹೇಳಿದೆನು.
