नाहं महेन्द्रादपि वजपाणे: क्रुद्धाद् बिभेम्यायुधवान् रथस्थ: । दृष्टवा हि भीष्मप्रमुखाउशयाना- नतीव मां हास्थिरता जहाति
Transliteration
nāhaṃ mahendrād api vajrapāṇeḥ kruddhād bibhemy āyudhavān rathasthaḥ | dṛṣṭvā hi bhīṣmapramukhān śayānān atīva māṃ hā sthiratā jahāti ||
Translation
मी आयुधधारी होऊन रथावर उभा असलो, तर वज्रधारी महेंद्र जरी क्रुद्ध होऊन आला तरी मला भय नाही. पण भीष्मप्रमुख श्रेष्ठ वीर रणभूमीवर पडलेले पाहताच माझे धैर्य पूर्णपणे ढळते.
