इस प्रकार श्रीमह्याभारत कर्णपर्वमें कर्णवधविषयक इक्यानबेवाँ अध्याय पूरा हुआ
isa prakāra śrīmahābhārate karṇaparvameṃ karṇavadhaviṣayaka ikyānabevāṃ adhyāya pūrā huā
Sanjaya berkata: Demikian berakhir bab kesembilan puluh satu dalam Karna Parva bagi Mahabharata yang suci, mengenai pembunuhan Karna. Rumusan penutup ini menandai tamatnya suatu episod penentu dalam perang, ketika akibat pilihan masa lalu dan tuntutan dharma memuncak pada suatu hasil yang tidak dapat diputar kembali.

As a chapter-ending colophon, the line does not teach through a direct maxim; it signals completion of a section centered on Karna’s slaying, implicitly highlighting how dharma, loyalty, and prior actions converge in war to produce decisive, morally weighty outcomes.
Sanjaya marks the conclusion of the ninety-first chapter in the Karna Parva, identifying its subject as Karna’s death; it functions as an editorial/narrative closure rather than a spoken verse advancing the plot.
