ततस्तु स्वरसम्पन्ना बहव: सूतमागधा: । शड्खदुन्दुभिनिर्घोषै: केशवं प्रत्यवोधयन्,तदनन्तर मधुर स्वरसे युता बहुत-से सूत और मागध शंख और दुन्दुभियोंके घोषसे भगवान् श्रीकृष्णको जगाने लगे
tatastu svarasampannā bahavaḥ sūtamāgadhāḥ | śaṅkhadundubhinirghoṣaiḥ keśavaṃ pratyabodhayan ||
随后，许多歌师——苏多与摩伽陀——嗓音甜美、训练有素，以海螺的嘹亮号声与战鼓的轰鸣，唤醒了凯沙瓦（圣克里希那）。
वैशम्पायन उवाच
Educational Q&A
The verse highlights the linkage between personal readiness and public responsibility: leaders are ceremonially roused by society’s voices and instruments, signaling that decisive action—especially in times of looming conflict—must be met with wakefulness, discipline, and awareness of duty.
Court bards (Sūtas and Māgadhas), using melodious chanting along with the loud sounds of conches and kettledrums, awaken Kṛṣṇa (Keśava), marking the start of an important day in the Udyoga Parva’s preparations and negotiations surrounding the impending war.
