Devanagari script

यदि भीष्मो रणश्लाघी न करिष्यति मे वच: । हनिष्याम्येनमुद्रिक्तमिति मे निश्चिता मतिः,यदि युद्धकी स्पृहा रखनेवाला भीष्म मेरी बात नहीं मानेगा तो मैं उस अभिमानीको मार डालूँगा; यह मेरा निश्चित विचार है

yadi bhīṣmo raṇaślāghī na kariṣyati me vacaḥ | haniṣyāmy enam udriktam iti me niścitā matiḥ ||

Translation

ଯଦି ରଣଗର୍ବୀ ଭୀଷ୍ମ ମୋ କଥା ମାନିବେ ନାହିଁ, ତେବେ ସେଇ ଉଦ୍ଧତକୁ ମୁଁ ବଧ କରିବି—ଏହା ମୋର ଦୃଢ଼ ନିଶ୍ଚୟ।
