Duryodhana’s Post-Duel Lament and Instructions (भग्नसक्थस्य विलापः)
Devanagari script
यदा पूर्व गत: कृष्ण: शमार्थ कौरवान् प्रति । न चतं लब्धवान् कामं॑ ततो युद्धमभूदिदम्,जब पूर्वकालमें श्रीकृष्ण संधि करानेके लिये कौरवोंके पास गये थे, उस समय तो उन्हें उनका अभीष्ट मनोरथ प्राप्त ही नहीं हुआ, जिससे यह युद्ध उपस्थित हुआ
Transliteration
yadā pūrva-gataḥ kṛṣṇaḥ śamārthaṃ kauravān prati | na ca taṃ labdhavān kāmaṃ tato yuddham abhūd idam ||
Translation
ਜਦੋਂ ਪਹਿਲਾਂ ਸ੍ਰੀਕ੍ਰਿਸ਼ਨ ਸੰਧਿ ਲਈ ਕੌਰਵਾਂ ਕੋਲ ਗਏ ਸਨ, ਤਦ ਉਹ ਆਪਣਾ ਮਨਚਾਹਾ ਨਤੀਜਾ ਨਾ ਲੈ ਸਕੇ; ਇਸੇ ਕਰਕੇ ਇਹ ਯੁੱਧ ਹੋਇਆ।
