राजसूयं पाण्डवस्य दृष्टवा क्रतुवरं महत् । मम स्पृहा समुत्पन्ना तां सम्पादय सूतज
rājasūyaṁ pāṇḍavasya dṛṣṭvā kratuvaraṁ mahat | mama spṛhā samutpannā tāṁ sampādaya sūtaja, sūtanandana ||
ପାଣ୍ଡବଙ୍କ ସେଇ ମହାନ୍, କ୍ରତୁଶ୍ରେଷ୍ଠ ରାଜସୂୟ ଯଜ୍ଞକୁ ଦେଖି ମୋ ହୃଦୟରେ ମଧ୍ୟ ଆକାଂକ୍ଷା ଜାଗିଉଠିଛି। ହେ ସୂତପୁତ୍ର, ହେ ସୂତନନ୍ଦନ! ମୋର ଏହି ଇଚ୍ଛା ପୂରଣ କର।
