Droṇa-parva Adhyāya 2: Karṇa’s lament, vow, and battle preparation after Bhīṣma’s fall
Devanagari script
समाहितं चात्मनि भारमीदृशं जगत् तथानित्यमिदं च लक्षये । निपातितं चाहवशौण्डमाहवे कथं नु कुर्यामहमीदृशे भयम्,“मैंने यह भार अपने ऊपर ले लिया। जब मैं यह देखता हूँ कि सारा जगत् अनित्य है तथा युद्धकुशल भीष्म भी युद्धमें मारे गये हैं, तब ऐसे अवसरपर मैं भय किस लिये करूँ?
Translation
«ဤမျှကြီးမားသော တာဝန်ကို ငါသည် ကိုယ်ပေါ်သို့ တင်ယူပြီးပြီ။ ကမ္ဘာလောကသည် မတည်မြဲကြောင်းကိုလည်းကောင်း၊ စစ်ပညာကျွမ်းကျင်သူ ဘီရှ္မပင် စစ်မြေပြင်၌ ကျဆုံးသွားကြောင်းကိုလည်းကောင်း ငါမြင်သောအခါ—ဤသို့သောအခါ၌ ငါသည် ဘာကြောင့် ကြောက်ရွံ့ရမည်နည်း?»
