तथा ब्रुवन्तं धर्मात्मा प्राह राजा युधिष्ठिर: । तव धैर्य च वीर्य च पञठ्चाला: पाण्डवै: सह
tathā bruvantaṃ dharmātmā prāha rājā yudhiṣṭhiraḥ | tava dhairyaṃ ca vīryaṃ ca pañcālāḥ pāṇḍavaiḥ saha
جب وہ یوں کہہ رہا تھا تو دین دار بادشاہ یُدھشٹھِر نے کہا—“تیرا حوصلہ اور تیرا پرَاکرم ہمارے ساتھ ہے؛ پاندَوؤں کے ساتھ پانچال بھی جمع ہیں—دھرم کے پَکش میں یہ عزم اور یہ متحد قوت اٹل ہے۔”

The verse highlights dharma-guided leadership: Yudhiṣṭhira, characterized as dharmātmā, responds by recognizing fortitude (dhairya) and valor (vīrya) as ethical strengths when aligned with righteous purpose and supported by just alliances.
Sañjaya reports that after someone has spoken, King Yudhiṣṭhira replies, pointing to the courage and martial strength available to their side—specifically that the Pañcālas stand together with the Pāṇḍavas—signaling consolidated support in the lead-up to conflict.
