धृष्टद्युम्नं ततो द्रोणो विद्ध्वा सप्तभिराशुगै:
dhṛṣṭadyumnaṃ tato droṇo viddhvā saptabhir āśugaiḥ
ສັນຊະຍະກ່າວວ່າ: ແລ້ວ ໂດຣນະ ໄດ້ຍິງລູກສອນອັນວ່ອງໄວເຈັດດອກ ຖືກ ທຣິສຕະດຍຸມນະ ແລະຜັກດັນການຮົບໃຫ້ເດີນໜ້າ—ເປັນການກະທຳທີ່ສະທ້ອນຄວາມດຸເດືອດອັນບໍ່ຢຸດຢັ້ງຕາມໜ້າທີ່, ໃນສົງຄາມທີ່ຄວາມຊຳນານອາວຸດຖືກນຳໃຊ້ບໍ່ມີການພັກ ຕໍ່ຕ້ານສັດຕູຜູ້ເປັນເລີດ.

Educational Q&A
The verse underscores the uncompromising momentum of battlefield duty (kṣatriya-dharma): a commander like Droṇa acts decisively against a principal opponent, illustrating how skill and resolve are deployed in war without hesitation, even when the moral weight of violence remains implicit.
Sañjaya reports that Droṇa shoots Dhṛṣṭadyumna with seven swift arrows, marking an intense exchange between leading warriors as the battle escalates under Droṇa’s command.
