Draupadī–Bhīmasena Dialogue on Suffering, Kāla, and Daiva

यस्य नास्ति समो वीर्ये कश्रिदुर्व्या धनुर्धर: । सोड्द्य कन्यापरिवृतो गायन्नास्ते धनंजय:,इस भूतलपर जिसके बल-पराक्रमकी समानता करनेवाला कोई धनुर्धर वीर नहीं है, वही धनंजय आज राजकन्याओंके बीचमें बैठकर गीत गाया करता है

yasya nāsti samo vīrye kaścid urvyāṁ dhanurdharaḥ | so ’dya kanyāparivṛto gāyann āste dhanañjayaḥ ||

ఈ భూమిపై అతని బల-పరాక్రమానికి సమానమైన ధనుర్ధర వీరుడు ఎవరూ లేరు; అలాంటి ధనంజయుడు నేడు రాజకన్యల మధ్య కూర్చొని పాటలు పాడుతున్నాడు।
