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 ||
บนแผ่นดินนี้ไม่มีวีรบุรุษผู้ถือธนูผู้ใดเสมอเขาในกำลังและเดช; แต่วันนี้ ธนัญชัยผู้นั้นกลับนั่งท่ามกลางเหล่าเจ้าหญิง ขับร้องบทเพลง
