धृतराष्ट्र उवाच ।
तथा प्रयाते शिबिरं द्रोणपुत्रे महारथे ।
कच्चित्कृपश्च भोजश्च भयार्तौ न न्यवर्तताम् ॥१॥
1. dhṛtarāṣṭra uvāca ,
tathā prayāte śibiraṁ droṇaputre mahārathe ,
kaccitkṛpaśca bhojaśca bhayārtau na nyavartatām.
1. dhṛtarāṣṭraḥ uvāca | tathā prayāte śibiram droṇaputre mahārathe
| kaccit kṛpaḥ ca bhojaḥ ca bhaya ārtau na nyavartatām
1. dhṛtarāṣṭraḥ uvāca mahārathe droṇaputre tathā śibiram
prayāte kaccit kṛpaḥ ca bhojaḥ ca bhaya ārtau na nyavartatām
1. Dhṛtarāṣṭra said: "After Droṇa's son, the great charioteer, had thus gone to the camp, tell me, did Kṛpa and Bhoja, afflicted by fear, not turn back?"
कच्चिन्न वारितौ क्षुद्रै रक्षिभिर्नोपलक्षितौ ।
असह्यमिति वा मत्वा न निवृत्तौ महारथौ ॥२॥
2. kaccinna vāritau kṣudrai rakṣibhirnopalakṣitau ,
asahyamiti vā matvā na nivṛttau mahārathau.
2. kaccit na vāritau kṣudraiḥ rakṣibhiḥ na upalakṣitau
| asahyam iti vā matvā na nivṛttau mahārathau
2. kaccit kṣudraiḥ rakṣibhiḥ na vāritau vā na upalakṣitau
vā asahyam iti matvā na nivṛttau mahārathau
2. Were they (Kṛpa and Bhoja) surely not stopped by lowly guards, nor noticed (by them)? Or, considering it unbearable, did those two great charioteers not turn back?
कच्चित्प्रमथ्य शिबिरं हत्वा सोमकपाण्डवान् ।
दुर्योधनस्य पदवीं गतौ परमिकां रणे ॥३॥
3. kaccitpramathya śibiraṁ hatvā somakapāṇḍavān ,
duryodhanasya padavīṁ gatau paramikāṁ raṇe.
3. kaccit pramathya śibiram hatvā somakapaṇḍavān
| duryodhanasya padavīm gatau paramikām raṇe
3. kaccit śibiram pramathya somakapaṇḍavān hatvā
duryodhanasya paramikām padavīm raṇe gatau
3. Did they (Kṛpa and Bhoja), after crushing the camp and killing the Somakas and Pāṇḍavas, attain Duryodhana's supreme fate on the battlefield?
पाञ्चालैर्वा विनिहतौ कच्चिन्नास्वपतां क्षितौ ।
कच्चित्ताभ्यां कृतं कर्म तन्ममाचक्ष्व संजय ॥४॥
4. pāñcālairvā vinihatau kaccinnāsvapatāṁ kṣitau ,
kaccittābhyāṁ kṛtaṁ karma tanmamācakṣva saṁjaya.
4. pāñcālaiḥ vā vinihatau kaccit na asvapatām kṣitau |
kaccit tābhyām kṛtam karma tat mama ācakṣva sañjaya
4. vā pāñcālaiḥ vinihatau kaccit kṣitau na asvapatām
kaccit tābhyām tat karma kṛtam sañjaya mama ācakṣva
4. Or, were they (Kṛpa and Bhoja) surely not killed by the Pāñcālas and laid down on the ground? O Saṃjaya, tell me whether that deed was accomplished by them.
संजय उवाच ।
तस्मिन्प्रयाते शिबिरं द्रोणपुत्रे महात्मनि ।
कृपश्च कृतवर्मा च शिबिरद्वार्यतिष्ठताम् ॥५॥
5. saṁjaya uvāca ,
tasminprayāte śibiraṁ droṇaputre mahātmani ,
kṛpaśca kṛtavarmā ca śibiradvāryatiṣṭhatām.
5. saṃjaya uvāca tasmin prayāte śibiram droṇaputre
mahātmani kṛpaḥ ca kṛtavarmā ca śibiradvāri atiṣṭhatām
5. saṃjaya uvāca tasmin mahātmani droṇaputre śibiram
prayāte kṛpaḥ ca kṛtavarmā ca śibiradvāri atiṣṭhatām
5. Sañjaya said: After that noble-minded son of Droṇa (Ashvatthama) had entered the camp, Kṛpa and Kṛtavarmā remained standing at the camp's entrance.
अश्वत्थामा तु तौ दृष्ट्वा यत्नवन्तौ महारथौ ।
प्रहृष्टः शनकै राजन्निदं वचनमब्रवीत् ॥६॥
6. aśvatthāmā tu tau dṛṣṭvā yatnavantau mahārathau ,
prahṛṣṭaḥ śanakai rājannidaṁ vacanamabravīt.
6. aśvatthāmā tu tau dṛṣṭvā yatnavantau mahārathau
prahṛṣṭaḥ śanakaiḥ rājan idam vacanam abravīt
6. rājan aśvatthāmā tu tau yatnavantau mahārathau
dṛṣṭvā prahṛṣṭaḥ śanakaiḥ idam vacanam abravīt
6. O King, seeing those two diligent great chariot-warriors (Kṛpa and Kṛtavarmā), Ashvatthama was greatly pleased and slowly spoke these words.
यत्तौ भवन्तौ पर्याप्तौ सर्वक्षत्रस्य नाशने ।
किं पुनर्योधशेषस्य प्रसुप्तस्य विशेषतः ॥७॥
7. yattau bhavantau paryāptau sarvakṣatrasya nāśane ,
kiṁ punaryodhaśeṣasya prasuptasya viśeṣataḥ.
7. yat tau bhavantau paryāptau sarvakṣatrasya nāśane
kim punaḥ yodhaśeṣasya prasuptasya viśeṣataḥ
7. yat bhavantau tau sarvakṣatrasya nāśane paryāptau,
punaḥ prasuptasya yodhaśeṣasya viśeṣataḥ kim (vadāmi)?
7. Since you two are perfectly capable of destroying the entire Kṣatriya (kṣatra) class, how much more so for the remnant of warriors, especially those who are asleep?
अहं प्रवेक्ष्ये शिबिरं चरिष्यामि च कालवत् ।
यथा न कश्चिदपि मे जीवन्मुच्येत मानवः ॥८॥
8. ahaṁ pravekṣye śibiraṁ cariṣyāmi ca kālavat ,
yathā na kaścidapi me jīvanmucyeta mānavaḥ.
8. aham pravekṣye śibiram cariṣyāmi ca kālavat
yathā na kaścit api me jīvan mucyeta mānavaḥ
8. aham śibiram pravekṣye,
ca kālavat cariṣyāmi; yathā kaścit mānavaḥ api me jīvan na mucyeta.
8. I will enter the camp and move about like Time (Kāla) itself, so that no human being will escape me alive.
इत्युक्त्वा प्राविशद्द्रौणिः पार्थानां शिबिरं महत् ।
अद्वारेणाभ्यवस्कन्द्य विहाय भयमात्मनः ॥९॥
9. ityuktvā prāviśaddrauṇiḥ pārthānāṁ śibiraṁ mahat ,
advāreṇābhyavaskandya vihāya bhayamātmanaḥ.
9. iti uktvā prāviśat Drauṇiḥ Pārthānām śibiram mahat
advāreṇa abhyavaskandya vihāya bhayam ātmanaḥ
9. iti uktvā Drauṇiḥ Pārthānām mahat śibiram advāreṇa
abhyavaskandya ātmanaḥ bhayam vihāya prāviśat
9. Having spoken thus, Drauṇi entered the large camp of the Pārthas, assailing it not through its entrance and having abandoned his own fear (ātman).
स प्रविश्य महाबाहुरुद्देशज्ञश्च तस्य ह ।
धृष्टद्युम्नस्य निलयं शनकैरभ्युपागमत् ॥१०॥
10. sa praviśya mahābāhuruddeśajñaśca tasya ha ,
dhṛṣṭadyumnasya nilayaṁ śanakairabhyupāgamat.
10. saḥ praviśya mahābāhuḥ uddeśajñaḥ ca tasya ha
Dhṛṣṭadyumnasya nilayam śanakaiḥ abhyupāgamat
10. saḥ mahābāhuḥ ca tasya Dhṛṣṭadyumnasya nilayam
uddeśajñaḥ ha (san) praviśya śanakaiḥ abhyupāgamat
10. Having entered, he, the mighty-armed one, who indeed knew the exact location, slowly approached the dwelling of Dhṛṣṭadyumna.
ते तु कृत्वा महत्कर्म श्रान्ताश्च बलवद्रणे ।
प्रसुप्ता वै सुविश्वस्ताः स्वसैन्यपरिवारिताः ॥११॥
11. te tu kṛtvā mahatkarma śrāntāśca balavadraṇe ,
prasuptā vai suviśvastāḥ svasainyaparivāritāḥ.
11. te tu kṛtvā mahat karma śrāntāḥ ca balavat raṇe
prasuptāḥ vai suviśvastāḥ svasainyaparivāritāḥ
11. te tu mahat karma kṛtvā balavat raṇe śrāntāḥ ca
prasuptāḥ vai suviśvastāḥ svasainyaparivāritāḥ (āsan)
11. But they, having accomplished a great deed (karma) and being greatly fatigued from battle, were fast asleep, truly unsuspecting, surrounded by their own army.
अथ प्रविश्य तद्वेश्म धृष्टद्युम्नस्य भारत ।
पाञ्चाल्यं शयने द्रौणिरपश्यत्सुप्तमन्तिकात् ॥१२॥
12. atha praviśya tadveśma dhṛṣṭadyumnasya bhārata ,
pāñcālyaṁ śayane drauṇirapaśyatsuptamantikāt.
12. atha praviśya tat veśma Dhṛṣṭadyumnasya Bhārata
Pāñcālyam śayane Drauṇiḥ apaśyat suptam antikāt
12. atha Bhārata Drauṇiḥ Dhṛṣṭadyumnasya tat veśma
praviśya śayane antikāt suptam Pāñcālyam apaśyat
12. Then, O Bhārata, having entered that dwelling of Dhṛṣṭadyumna, Drauṇi saw the Pāñcāla prince sleeping nearby on his bed.
क्षौमावदाते महति स्पर्ध्यास्तरणसंवृते ।
माल्यप्रवरसंयुक्ते धूपैश्चूर्णैश्च वासिते ॥१३॥
13. kṣaumāvadāte mahati spardhyāstaraṇasaṁvṛte ,
mālyapravarasaṁyukte dhūpaiścūrṇaiśca vāsite.
13. kṣaumāvadāte mahati spardhyāstaraṇasaṃvṛte
mālyapravarasaṃyukte dhūpaiḥ cūrṇaiḥ ca vāsite
13. kṣaumāvadāte mahati spardhyāstaraṇasaṃvṛte
mālyapravarasaṃyukte dhūpaiḥ cūrṇaiḥ ca vāsite
13. Upon a vast, pure white bed, made of fine linen, covered with a splendid spread, adorned with excellent garlands, and perfumed with incense and powders.
तं शयानं महात्मानं विस्रब्धमकुतोभयम् ।
प्राबोधयत पादेन शयनस्थं महीपते ॥१४॥
14. taṁ śayānaṁ mahātmānaṁ visrabdhamakutobhayam ,
prābodhayata pādena śayanasthaṁ mahīpate.
14. tam śayānam mahātmānam visrabdham akutobhayam
prābodhayata pādena śayanastham mahīpate
14. mahīpate tam śayānam mahātmānam visrabdham
akutobhayam śayanastham pādena prābodhayata
14. O king, (he) woke that great-souled one (mahātman), who was sleeping on the bed, utterly fearless and confident, by (touching him with) his foot.
स बुद्ध्वा चरणस्पर्शमुत्थाय रणदुर्मदः ।
अभ्यजानदमेयात्मा द्रोणपुत्रं महारथम् ॥१५॥
15. sa buddhvā caraṇasparśamutthāya raṇadurmadaḥ ,
abhyajānadameyātmā droṇaputraṁ mahāratham.
15. saḥ buddhvā caraṇasparśam utthāya raṇadurmadaḥ
abhyajānāt ameyātmā droṇaputram mahāratham
15. saḥ raṇadurmadaḥ ameyātmā caraṇasparśam buddhvā
utthāya droṇaputram mahāratham abhyajānāt
15. Having perceived the touch of a foot and having risen, he, whose spirit (ātman) was immeasurable and who was fierce in battle, recognized Drona's son, the great chariot-warrior.
तमुत्पतन्तं शयनादश्वत्थामा महाबलः ।
केशेष्वालम्ब्य पाणिभ्यां निष्पिपेष महीतले ॥१६॥
16. tamutpatantaṁ śayanādaśvatthāmā mahābalaḥ ,
keśeṣvālambya pāṇibhyāṁ niṣpipeṣa mahītale.
16. tam utpatantam śayanāt aśvatthāmā mahābalaḥ
keśeṣu ālambya pāṇibhyām niṣpipeṣa mahītale
16. mahābalaḥ aśvatthāmā śayanāt utpatantam tam
keśeṣu pāṇibhyām ālambya mahītale niṣpipeṣa
16. The mighty Aśvatthāmā, seizing him by the hair with both hands as he sprang up from the bed, crushed him onto the ground.
स बलात्तेन निष्पिष्टः साध्वसेन च भारत ।
निद्रया चैव पाञ्चाल्यो नाशकच्चेष्टितुं तदा ॥१७॥
17. sa balāttena niṣpiṣṭaḥ sādhvasena ca bhārata ,
nidrayā caiva pāñcālyo nāśakacceṣṭituṁ tadā.
17. sa balāt tena niṣpiṣṭaḥ sādhvasena ca bhārata
nidrayā ca eva pāñcālyaḥ na aśaknot ceṣṭitum tadā
17. bhārata tena balāt niṣpiṣṭaḥ ca sādhvasena ca
nidrayā eva saḥ pāñcālyaḥ tadā ceṣṭitum na aśaknot
17. O Bhārata, crushed by him with force, and simultaneously overwhelmed by fear and sleep, that Pāñcāla prince (Dhṛṣṭadyumna) was then unable to stir.
तमाक्रम्य तदा राजन्कण्ठे चोरसि चोभयोः ।
नदन्तं विस्फुरन्तं च पशुमारममारयत् ॥१८॥
18. tamākramya tadā rājankaṇṭhe corasi cobhayoḥ ,
nadantaṁ visphurantaṁ ca paśumāramamārayat.
18. tam ākramya tadā rājan kaṇṭhe ca urasi ca ubhayoḥ
nadantam visphurantam ca paśumāram amārayat
18. rājan tadā tam ākramya kaṇṭhe ca urasi ubhayoḥ
nadantam ca visphurantam paśumāram amārayat
18. Then, O king, having overpowered him, he killed him – who was crying out and struggling – in the manner of an animal's slaughter (paśumāram), striking him on both his neck and chest.
तुदन्नखैस्तु स द्रौणिं नातिव्यक्तमुदाहरत् ।
आचार्यपुत्र शस्त्रेण जहि मा मा चिरं कृथाः ।
त्वत्कृते सुकृताँल्लोकान्गच्छेयं द्विपदां वर ॥१९॥
19. tudannakhaistu sa drauṇiṁ nātivyaktamudāharat ,
ācāryaputra śastreṇa jahi mā mā ciraṁ kṛthāḥ ,
tvatkṛte sukṛtāँllokāngaccheyaṁ dvipadāṁ vara.
19. tudan nakhaiḥ tu saḥ drauṇim na
ativyaktam udāharat ācāryaputra śastreṇa
jahi mā mā ciram kṛthāḥ tvatkṛte
sukṛtān lokān gaccheyam dvipadām vara
19. tudan nakhaiḥ saḥ tu drauṇim na
ativyaktam udāharat ācāryaputra śastreṇa
jahi mā ciram kṛthāḥ dvipadām vara
tvatkṛte sukṛtān lokān gaccheyam
19. Indeed, even as he pierced him with his nails, he (Dhṛṣṭadyumna) spoke to Droṇa's son (Aśvatthāmā), though not very clearly: 'O son of the teacher, kill me with a weapon! Do not delay! For your sake, O best among two-footed beings, may I attain the worlds (loka) of the virtuous.'
तस्याव्यक्तां तु तां वाचं संश्रुत्य द्रौणिरब्रवीत् ।
आचार्यघातिनां लोका न सन्ति कुलपांसन ।
तस्माच्छस्त्रेण निधनं न त्वमर्हसि दुर्मते ॥२०॥
20. tasyāvyaktāṁ tu tāṁ vācaṁ saṁśrutya drauṇirabravīt ,
ācāryaghātināṁ lokā na santi kulapāṁsana ,
tasmācchastreṇa nidhanaṁ na tvamarhasi durmate.
20. tasya avyaktām tu tām vācam saṃśrutya
drauṇiḥ abravīt ācāryaghātinām
lokāḥ na santi kulapāṃsana tasmāt
śastreṇa nidhanam na tvam arhasi durmate
20. tu tasya tām avyaktām vācam saṃśrutya
drauṇiḥ abravīt kulapāṃsana
ācāryaghātinām lokāḥ na santi tasmāt
durmate tvam śastreṇa nidhanam na arhasi
20. However, upon hearing his (Dhṛṣṭadyumna's) indistinct voice, Droṇa's son (Aśvatthāmā) replied: 'O disgracer of your family, there are no good worlds (loka) for those who kill their teacher! Therefore, O evil-minded one, you do not deserve to die by a weapon!'
एवं ब्रुवाणस्तं वीरं सिंहो मत्तमिव द्विपम् ।
मर्मस्वभ्यवधीत्क्रुद्धः पादाष्ठीलैः सुदारुणैः ॥२१॥
21. evaṁ bruvāṇastaṁ vīraṁ siṁho mattamiva dvipam ,
marmasvabhyavadhītkruddhaḥ pādāṣṭhīlaiḥ sudāruṇaiḥ.
21. evam bruvāṇaḥ tam vīram siṃhaḥ mattam iva dvipam
marmasu abhyavadhīt kruddhaḥ pādāṣṭhīlaiḥ sudāruṇaiḥ
21. evam bruvāṇaḥ kruddhaḥ siṃhaḥ mattam dvipam iva tam
vīram marmasu sudāruṇaiḥ pādāṣṭhīlaiḥ abhyavadhīt
21. Speaking thus, the enraged man, like a lion attacking an intoxicated elephant, struck that hero in his vital points with extremely terrible heel strikes.
तस्य वीरस्य शब्देन मार्यमाणस्य वेश्मनि ।
अबुध्यन्त महाराज स्त्रियो ये चास्य रक्षिणः ॥२२॥
22. tasya vīrasya śabdena māryamāṇasya veśmani ,
abudhyanta mahārāja striyo ye cāsya rakṣiṇaḥ.
22. tasya vīrasya śabdena māryamāṇasya veśmani
abudhyanta mahārāja striyaḥ ye ca asya rakṣiṇaḥ
22. mahārāja tasya māryamāṇasya vīrasya śabdena
veśmani striyaḥ ca ye asya rakṣiṇaḥ abudhyanta
22. O great king (mahārāja), by the sound of that hero being struck down in the house, the women and his guards awoke.
ते दृष्ट्वा वर्ष्मवन्तं तमतिमानुषविक्रमम् ।
भूतमेव व्यवस्यन्तो न स्म प्रव्याहरन्भयात् ॥२३॥
23. te dṛṣṭvā varṣmavantaṁ tamatimānuṣavikramam ,
bhūtameva vyavasyanto na sma pravyāharanbhayāt.
23. te dṛṣṭvā varṣmavantam tam atimānuṣavikramam
bhūtam eva vyavasyantaḥ na sma pravyāharan bhayāt
23. te varṣmavantam atimānuṣavikramam tam dṛṣṭvā
bhūtam eva vyavasyantaḥ bhayāt na sma pravyāharan
23. Seeing him, who was corporeal and possessed of superhuman valor, they, concluding that he was a supernatural being, did not speak out of fear.
तं तु तेनाभ्युपायेन गमयित्वा यमक्षयम् ।
अध्यतिष्ठत्स तेजस्वी रथं प्राप्य सुदर्शनम् ॥२४॥
24. taṁ tu tenābhyupāyena gamayitvā yamakṣayam ,
adhyatiṣṭhatsa tejasvī rathaṁ prāpya sudarśanam.
24. tam tu tena abhyupāyena gamayitvā yamakṣayam
adhyatiṣṭhat saḥ tejasvī ratham prāpya sudarśanam
24. tu tejasvī tam tena abhyupāyena yamakṣayam
gamayitvā saḥ sudarśanam ratham prāpya adhyatiṣṭhat
24. But that lustrous and powerful one (tejasvin), having dispatched him to the abode of Yama (yamakṣayam) by that very means, then obtained and mounted the splendid chariot (sudarśanam).
स तस्य भवनाद्राजन्निष्क्रम्यानादयन्दिशः ।
रथेन शिबिरं प्रायाज्जिघांसुर्द्विषतो बली ॥२५॥
25. sa tasya bhavanādrājanniṣkramyānādayandiśaḥ ,
rathena śibiraṁ prāyājjighāṁsurdviṣato balī.
25. sa tasya bhavanāt rājan niṣkramya anādayan diśaḥ
| rathena śibiram prāyāt jighāṃsuḥ dviṣataḥ balī
25. rājan saḥ balī tasya bhavanāt niṣkramya diśaḥ
anādayan rathena dviṣataḥ jighāṃsuḥ śibiram prāyāt
25. O King (Dhṛtarāṣṭra), that mighty one, having emerged from his dwelling and making the directions resound, proceeded by chariot to the camp, intending to kill his enemies.
अपक्रान्ते ततस्तस्मिन्द्रोणपुत्रे महारथे ।
सह तै रक्षिभिः सर्वैः प्रणेदुर्योषितस्तदा ॥२६॥
26. apakrānte tatastasmindroṇaputre mahārathe ,
saha tai rakṣibhiḥ sarvaiḥ praṇeduryoṣitastadā.
26. apakrānte tataḥ tasmin droṇaputre mahārathe |

26. tataḥ tasmin droṇaputre mahārathe apakrānte tadā
sarvaiḥ taiḥ rakṣibhiḥ saha yoṣitaḥ praṇeduḥ
26. After that great chariot-warrior, the son of Droṇa (Aśvatthāman), had then departed, the women, along with all those guards, then wailed.
राजानं निहतं दृष्ट्वा भृशं शोकपरायणाः ।
व्याक्रोशन्क्षत्रियाः सर्वे धृष्टद्युम्नस्य भारत ॥२७॥
27. rājānaṁ nihataṁ dṛṣṭvā bhṛśaṁ śokaparāyaṇāḥ ,
vyākrośankṣatriyāḥ sarve dhṛṣṭadyumnasya bhārata.
27. rājānam nihatam dṛṣṭvā bhṛśam śokaparāyaṇāḥ |
vyākrośan kṣatriyāḥ sarve dhṛṣṭadyumnasya bhārata
27. bhārata rājānam nihatam dṛṣṭvā bhṛśam śokaparāyaṇāḥ
sarve kṣatriyāḥ dhṛṣṭadyumnasya vyākrośan
27. O Bhārata (Dhṛtarāṣṭra), all the Kṣatriyas, having seen king Dhṛṣṭadyumna slain, and deeply overwhelmed by grief, cried out.
तासां तु तेन शब्देन समीपे क्षत्रियर्षभाः ।
क्षिप्रं च समनह्यन्त किमेतदिति चाब्रुवन् ॥२८॥
28. tāsāṁ tu tena śabdena samīpe kṣatriyarṣabhāḥ ,
kṣipraṁ ca samanahyanta kimetaditi cābruvan.
28. tāsām tu tena śabdena samīpe kṣatriyarṣabhāḥ |
kṣipram ca samanahyanta kim etat iti ca abruvan
28. tu tāsām tena śabdena samīpe kṣatriyarṣabhāḥ ca
kṣipram samanahyanta kim etat iti ca abruvan
28. But by that sound of theirs, the chief Kṣatriyas nearby quickly prepared themselves and said, "What is this?"
स्त्रियस्तु राजन्वित्रस्ता भारद्वाजं निरीक्ष्य तम् ।
अब्रुवन्दीनकण्ठेन क्षिप्रमाद्रवतेति वै ॥२९॥
29. striyastu rājanvitrastā bhāradvājaṁ nirīkṣya tam ,
abruvandīnakaṇṭhena kṣipramādravateti vai.
29. striyaḥ tu rājan vitrastāḥ bhāradvājam nirīkṣya
tam abruvan dīna kaṇṭhena kṣipram ādravata iti vai
29. rājan vitrastāḥ striyaḥ tu tam bhāradvājam nirīkṣya
dīna-kaṇṭhena kṣipram ādravata iti vai abruvan
29. But, O King, the terrified women, seeing him, the son of Bharadvāja, exclaimed with a mournful voice, 'Quickly flee!'
राक्षसो वा मनुष्यो वा नैनं जानीमहे वयम् ।
हत्वा पाञ्चालराजं यो रथमारुह्य तिष्ठति ॥३०॥
30. rākṣaso vā manuṣyo vā nainaṁ jānīmahe vayam ,
hatvā pāñcālarājaṁ yo rathamāruhya tiṣṭhati.
30. rākṣasaḥ vā manuṣyaḥ vā na enam jānīmahe vayam
hatvā pāñcālarājam yaḥ ratham āruhya tiṣṭhati
30. vayam enam rākṣasaḥ vā manuṣyaḥ vā na jānīmahe
yaḥ pāñcālarājam hatvā ratham āruhya tiṣṭhati
30. We do not know if this one is a demon or a human, he who, having killed the king of Pañcāla, stands on the chariot.
ततस्ते योधमुख्यास्तं सहसा पर्यवारयन् ।
स तानापततः सर्वान्रुद्रास्त्रेण व्यपोथयत् ॥३१॥
31. tataste yodhamukhyāstaṁ sahasā paryavārayan ,
sa tānāpatataḥ sarvānrudrāstreṇa vyapothayat.
31. tataḥ te yodhamukhyāḥ tam sahasā paryavārayan
sa tān āpatataḥ sarvān rudrāstreṇa vyapothayat
31. tataḥ te yodhamukhyāḥ sahasā tam paryavārayan
sa rudrāstreṇa āpatataḥ tān sarvān vyapothayat
31. Then, those chief warriors suddenly surrounded him. He, in turn, annihilated all of them who were attacking with a Rudra weapon.
धृष्टद्युम्नं च हत्वा स तांश्चैवास्य पदानुगान् ।
अपश्यच्छयने सुप्तमुत्तमौजसमन्तिके ॥३२॥
32. dhṛṣṭadyumnaṁ ca hatvā sa tāṁścaivāsya padānugān ,
apaśyacchayane suptamuttamaujasamantike.
32. dhṛṣṭadyumnam ca hatvā sa tān ca eva asya
padānugān apaśyat śayane suptam uttamaujasam antike
32. sa dhṛṣṭadyumnam ca hatvā,
asya padānugān tān ca eva,
śayane suptam uttamaujasam antike apaśyat
32. And having killed Dhṛṣṭadyumna, he then saw his followers and Uttamaujas, who was sleeping on his bed nearby.
तमप्याक्रम्य पादेन कण्ठे चोरसि चौजसा ।
तथैव मारयामास विनर्दन्तमरिंदमम् ॥३३॥
33. tamapyākramya pādena kaṇṭhe corasi caujasā ,
tathaiva mārayāmāsa vinardantamariṁdamam.
33. tam api ākramya pādena kaṇṭhe ca urasi ca ojasā
tathā eva mārayāmāsa vinardantam ariṃdamam
33. tam ariṃdamam vinardantam api pādena kaṇṭhe ca

33. Stepping on the neck and chest of that roaring vanquisher of enemies with his foot and with great might, he killed him in just that manner.
युधामन्युस्तु संप्राप्तो मत्त्वा तं रक्षसा हतम् ।
गदामुद्यम्य वेगेन हृदि द्रौणिमताडयत् ॥३४॥
34. yudhāmanyustu saṁprāpto mattvā taṁ rakṣasā hatam ,

34. yudhāmanyuḥ tu saṃprāptaḥ mattvā tam rakṣasā

34. yudhāmanyuḥ tu saṃprāptaḥ tam rakṣasā hatam
mattvā gadām udyamya vegena drauṇim hṛdi atāḍayat
34. But Yudhamanyu, having arrived and thinking that (the fallen warrior) had been killed by a demon (rakṣas), quickly raised his mace and struck Droṇi's son (Drauṇi) on the chest.
तमभिद्रुत्य जग्राह क्षितौ चैनमपातयत् ।

35. tam abhidrutya jagrāha ca enam kṣitau apātayat
ca visphurantam paśuvat tathā eva enam amārayat
35. Rushing towards him, he seized him and threw him to the ground. And as he was writhing like an animal, he killed him in just that manner.
तथा स वीरो हत्वा तं ततोऽन्यान्समुपाद्रवत् ।

36. tathā sa vīro hatvā taṁ tato'nyānsamupādravat ,

tataḥ tatra tatra saṃsuptān eva sphurataḥ

makhe paśūn śamitā iva sam upa adravat
36. Thus, O king (rājendra), that hero, having killed him, then rushed towards the other deeply sleeping great charioteers (mahārathas) here and there. He killed them, though they were struggling and trembling, just as a sacrificer (śamitā) kills animals (paśus) in a ritual sacrifice (makha).
ततो निस्त्रिंशमादाय जघानान्यान्पृथग्जनान् ।

37. tataḥ nistriṃśam ādāya asi-yuddha-viśāradaḥ
vicaran mārgān anyān pṛthak-janān bhāgaśaḥ jaghāna
37. Then, taking his sword, he, an expert in sword-fighting, moving along the roads, killed others, the common people, group by group.
तथैव गुल्मे संप्रेक्ष्य शयानान्मध्यगौल्मिकान् ।

38. Similarly, having seen all the middle guards sleeping in the encampment, exhausted and having put down their weapons, he destroyed them in an instant.

39. saḥ rudhira-ukṣita-sarva-aṅgaḥ kāla-sṛṣṭaḥ antakaḥ

39. With his excellent sword, he cut down warriors, horses, and elephants. His entire body was drenched in blood, as if he were Antaka (the Destroyer) manifested by Kāla (Time/Death).
विस्फुरद्भिश्च तैर्द्रौणिर्निस्त्रिंशस्योद्यमेन च ।

40. drauṇiḥ taiḥ visphuradbhiḥ ca nistriṃśasya udyamena ca
aseḥ ākṣepeṇa tathā eva tri-dhā rakta-ukṣitaḥ abhavat
40. Drauṇi became drenched in blood in three ways: by the writhing (bodies) and by them, by the exertion of wielding his long sword, and similarly by the forceful blows of the sword.
तस्य लोहितसिक्तस्य दीप्तखड्गस्य युध्यतः ।

41. tasya lohitasiktasya dīptakhaḍgasya yudhyataḥ ,

41. tasya lohitasiktasya dīptakhaḍgasya yudhyataḥ

41. As he fought, his form, soaked in blood and with a gleaming sword, appeared superhuman and exceedingly terrifying.
ये त्वजाग्रत कौरव्य तेऽपि शब्देन मोहिताः ।

42. ye tvajāgrata kauravya te'pi śabdena mohitāḥ ,

42. ye tu ajāgrata kauravya te api śabdena mohitāḥ

42. kauravya ye tu ajāgrata te api śabdena mohitāḥ
anyonyam nirīkṣyamāṇāḥ drauṇim dṛṣṭvā pravivyathuḥ
42. But O Kauravya, even those who were awake were bewildered by the sound. Looking at each other, they became greatly distressed upon seeing Drona's son (Drauṇi).
तद्रूपं तस्य ते दृष्ट्वा क्षत्रियाः शत्रुकर्शनाः ।

43. tadrūpaṁ tasya te dṛṣṭvā kṣatriyāḥ śatrukarśanāḥ ,

43. tad rūpam tasya te dṛṣṭvā kṣatriyāḥ śatrukārśanāḥ

43. te śatrukārśanāḥ kṣatriyāḥ tasya tad rūpam dṛṣṭvā
tam rākṣasam manyamānāḥ nayanāni nyamīlayan
43. Having seen that form of his, those Kṣatriya warriors, tormentors of their enemies, thinking him to be a demon, closed their eyes.
स घोररूपो व्यचरत्कालवच्छिबिरे ततः ।

44. sa ghorarūpo vyacaratkālavacchibire tataḥ ,

44. saḥ ghorarūpaḥ vyacarat kālavat śibire tataḥ

44. tataḥ saḥ ghorarūpaḥ kālavat śibire vyacarat
draupadīputrān ca avaśiṣṭān somakān apaśyat
44. Then, he, of dreadful form, wandered in the camp like (the god of) Death. He saw the sons of Draupadi and the other remaining Somaka warriors.
तेन शब्देन वित्रस्ता धनुर्हस्ता महारथाः ।
धृष्टद्युम्नं हतं श्रुत्वा द्रौपदेया विशां पते ।

45. tena śabdena vitrastāḥ dhanuḥhastāḥ

45. viśām pate,
tena śabdena vitrastāḥ dhanuḥhastāḥ mahārathāḥ,
dhṛṣṭadyumnam hatam śrutvā,
draupadeyāḥ bhāradvājam śaravrātaiḥ abhītavat avākiran
45. O ruler of men, the great chariot warriors, holding bows in their hands, became terrified by that sound. Hearing that Dhṛṣṭadyumna had been killed, the sons of Draupad then fearlessly showered Bhāradvāja (Droṇa) with volleys of arrows.
ततस्तेन निनादेन संप्रबुद्धाः प्रभद्रकाः ।
शिलीमुखैः शिखण्डी च द्रोणपुत्रं समार्दयन् ॥४६॥
46. tatastena ninādena saṁprabuddhāḥ prabhadrakāḥ ,

46. tataḥ tena ninādena samprabuddhāḥ prabhadrakāḥ

46. tataḥ tena ninādena samprabuddhāḥ prabhadrakāḥ,
śikhaṇḍī ca,
śilīmukhaiḥ droṇaputram samārdayan
46. Then, awakened by that sound, the Prabhadrakas and Shikhandi tormented Droṇa's son (Aśvatthāman) with arrows.
भारद्वाजस्तु तान्दृष्ट्वा शरवर्षाणि वर्षतः ।
ननाद बलवन्नादं जिघांसुस्तान्सुदुर्जयान् ॥४७॥
47. bhāradvājastu tāndṛṣṭvā śaravarṣāṇi varṣataḥ ,

47. bhāradvājaḥ tu tān dṛṣṭvā śaravarṣāṇi varṣataḥ

47. tu bhāradvājaḥ tān शरवर्षाणि वर्षतः दृष्ट्वा,
तान् सुदुर्जयान् जिघांसुः बलवत् नादम् ननाद
47. But Bhāradvāja (Droṇa), seeing them raining volleys of arrows, roared a mighty roar, desiring to kill those who were very difficult to conquer.
ततः परमसंक्रुद्धः पितुर्वधमनुस्मरन् ।
अवरुह्य रथोपस्थात्त्वरमाणोऽभिदुद्रुवे ॥४८॥
48. tataḥ paramasaṁkruddhaḥ piturvadhamanusmaran ,

48. tataḥ paramasaṃkruddhaḥ pituḥ vadham anusmaran

48. tataḥ paramasaṃkruddhaḥ,
pituḥ vadham anusmaran,
rathopasthāt avaruhya,
tvaramāṇaḥ abhidudruve
48. Then, exceedingly enraged and remembering his father's death, he quickly descended from the chariot's platform and rushed forward.
सहस्रचन्द्रं विपुलं गृहीत्वा चर्म संयुगे ।

49. The powerful warrior, grasping a large shield adorned with a thousand moon-like patterns and a vast, divine sword embellished with gold, attacked the sons of Draupadī and fought fiercely with his sword in battle.
ततः स नरशार्दूलः प्रतिविन्ध्यं तमाहवे ।

50. tataḥ sa naraśārdūlaḥ prativindhyaṁ tamāhave ,

50. tataḥ saḥ naraśārdūlaḥ prativindhyam tam āhave

50. rājan tataḥ saḥ naraśārdūlaḥ āhave tam prativindhyam
kukṣideśe avadhīt saḥ hataḥ bhuvi nyapatat
50. O king, then that foremost among men struck down Prativindhya in battle, hitting him in the stomach region. Having been slain, he fell to the ground.
प्रासेन विद्ध्वा द्रौणिं तु सुतसोमः प्रतापवान् ।

51. prāsena viddhvā drauṇiṁ tu sutasomaḥ pratāpavān ,

51. prāsena viddhvā drauṇim tu sutasomaḥ pratāpavān
punaḥ ca asim samudyamya droṇaputram upādravat
51. tu pratāpavān sutasomaḥ prāsena drauṇim viddhvā
punaḥ ca asim samudyamya droṇaputram upādravat
51. But the powerful Sutasoma, having struck Droṇi (Ashvatthama) with a spear, then again raised his sword and rushed towards Drona's son.
सुतसोमस्य सासिं तु बाहुं छित्त्वा नरर्षभः ।
पुनरभ्यहनत्पार्श्वे स भिन्नहृदयोऽपतत् ॥५२॥
52. sutasomasya sāsiṁ tu bāhuṁ chittvā nararṣabhaḥ ,

52. sutasomasya sāsim tu bāhum chittvā nararṣabhaḥ

52. tu nararṣabhaḥ sutasomasya sāsim bāhum chittvā
punaḥ pārśve abhyahanat saḥ bhinnahṛdayaḥ apatat
52. But that foremost among men, having cut off Sutasoma's sword-wielding arm, again struck him in the flank. With his heart shattered, he fell.
नाकुलिस्तु शतानीको रथचक्रेण वीर्यवान् ।
दोर्भ्यामुत्क्षिप्य वेगेन वक्षस्येनमताडयत् ॥५३॥
53. nākulistu śatānīko rathacakreṇa vīryavān ,
dorbhyāmutkṣipya vegena vakṣasyenamatāḍayat.
53. नाकुलिः तु शतानीकः रथचक्रेण वीर्यवान्

53. वीर्यवान् नाकुलिः तु दोर्भ्याम् रथचक्रेण
उत्क्षिप्य वेगेन एनम् शतानीकः वक्षसि अताडयत्
53. The valorous Nakula, lifting a chariot wheel with his two arms, forcefully struck Śatānīka on the chest.
अताडयच्छतानीकं मुक्तचक्रं द्विजस्तु सः ।
स विह्वलो ययौ भूमिं ततोऽस्यापाहरच्छिरः ॥५४॥
54. atāḍayacchatānīkaṁ muktacakraṁ dvijastu saḥ ,
sa vihvalo yayau bhūmiṁ tato'syāpāharacchiraḥ.
54. अताडयत् शतानीकम् मुक्तचक्रम् द्विजः तु सः

54. सः द्विजः तु मुक्तचक्रम् शतानीकम् अताडयत्
सः विह्वलः भूमिम् ययौ ततः अस्य शिरः अपाहरत्
54. But that Brahmin (Aśvatthāman) struck Śatānīka, who had lost his wheel. Bewildered, he (Śatānīka) fell to the ground. Then (Aśvatthāman) cut off his head.
श्रुतकर्मा तु परिघं गृहीत्वा समताडयत् ।
अभिद्रुत्य ततो द्रौणिं सव्ये स फलके भृशम् ॥५५॥
55. śrutakarmā tu parighaṁ gṛhītvā samatāḍayat ,

55. श्रुतकर्मा तु परिघम् गृहीत्वा समताडयत्

55. श्रुतकर्मा तु सः परिघम् गृहीत्वा ततः द्रौणिम्
अभिद्रुत्य सव्ये फलके भृशम् समताडयत्
55. But Śrutakarmā, having seized an iron club and then having rushed towards Drauṇi (Aśvatthāman), struck him severely on his left shield.
स तु तं श्रुतकर्माणमास्ये जघ्ने वरासिना ।
स हतो न्यपतद्भूमौ विमूढो विकृताननः ॥५६॥
56. sa tu taṁ śrutakarmāṇamāsye jaghne varāsinā ,
sa hato nyapatadbhūmau vimūḍho vikṛtānanaḥ.
56. सः तु तम् श्रुतकर्माणम् आस्ये जघ्ने वरासिना

56. सः तु वरासिना तम् श्रुतकर्माणम् आस्ये
जघ्ne सः हतः विमूढः विकृताननः भूमौ न्यपतत्
56. But he (Drauṇi/Aśvatthāman) struck Śrutakarmā on the face with an excellent sword. He (Śrutakarmā), thus struck and bewildered, fell to the ground with a distorted face.
तेन शब्देन वीरस्तु श्रुतकीर्तिर्महाधनुः ।

57. tena śabdena vīrastu śrutakīrtirmahādhanuḥ ,

57. tena śabdena vīraḥ tu śrutakīrtiḥ mahādhanuḥ

57. tena śabdena śrutakīrtiḥ vīraḥ tu mahādhanuḥ
aśvatthāmānam āsādya śaravarṣaiḥ avākirat
57. Hearing that sound, the hero Śrutakīrti, wielding his great bow, approached Ashwatthaman and showered him with arrows.
तस्यापि शरवर्षाणि चर्मणा प्रतिवार्य सः ।
सकुण्डलं शिरः कायाद्भ्राजमानमपाहरत् ॥५८॥
58. tasyāpi śaravarṣāṇi carmaṇā prativārya saḥ ,

58. tasya api śaravarṣāṇi carmaṇā prativārya saḥ

58. saḥ tasya api śaravarṣāṇi carmaṇā prativārya
sakuṇḍalaṃ bhrājamānam śiraḥ kāyāt apāharat
58. Ashwatthaman, having warded off those showers of arrows with his shield, then severed from the body the shining head, adorned with earrings.
ततो भीष्मनिहन्ता तं सह सर्वैः प्रभद्रकैः ।
अहनत्सर्वतो वीरं नानाप्रहरणैर्बली ।
शिलीमुखेन चाप्येनं भ्रुवोर्मध्ये समार्दयत् ॥५९॥
59. tato bhīṣmanihantā taṁ saha sarvaiḥ prabhadrakaiḥ ,

59. tataḥ bhīṣmanihantā tam saha sarvaiḥ

prabhadrkaiḥ tam vīram sarvataḥ
nānāpraharṇaiḥ ahanat ca api enam
śilīmukhena bhruvoḥ madhye samārdayat
59. Then, the powerful slayer of Bhishma (Shikhaṇḍī), along with all the Prabhadrkas, attacked that hero (Ashwatthaman) from all sides with various weapons. He also severely wounded him between the eyebrows with an arrow.
स तु क्रोधसमाविष्टो द्रोणपुत्रो महाबलः ।
शिखण्डिनं समासाद्य द्विधा चिच्छेद सोऽसिना ॥६०॥
60. sa tu krodhasamāviṣṭo droṇaputro mahābalaḥ ,

60. saḥ tu krodhasamāviṣṭaḥ droṇaputraḥ mahābalaḥ

60. saḥ tu droṇaputraḥ mahābalaḥ krodhasamāviṣṭaḥ
śikhaṇḍinam samāsādya asinā dvidhā ciccheda
60. But that extremely powerful son of Drona (Ashwatthaman), overcome with intense anger, approached Shikhaṇḍī and cut him into two with his sword.
शिखण्डिनं ततो हत्वा क्रोधाविष्टः परंतपः ।
प्रभद्रकगणान्सर्वानभिदुद्राव वेगवान् ।
यच्च शिष्टं विराटस्य बलं तच्च समाद्रवत् ॥६१॥
61. śikhaṇḍinaṁ tato hatvā krodhāviṣṭaḥ paraṁtapaḥ ,

61. śikhaṇḍinam tataḥ hatvā krodhāviṣṭaḥ

61. tataḥ krodhāviṣṭaḥ vegavān paraṃtapaḥ
śikhaṇḍinam hatvā sarvān
prabhādrakagaṇān abhidudrāva ca yat
virāṭasya śiṣṭam balam tat ca samādravat
61. Then, after killing Shikhandin, that tormentor of foes, inflamed with rage, swiftly charged towards all the Prabhadrka troops. And whatever remained of Virata's army, he also attacked that.
द्रुपदस्य च पुत्राणां पौत्राणां सुहृदामपि ।

62. drupadasya ca putrāṇāṁ pautrāṇāṁ suhṛdāmapi ,

62. mahābalaḥ drupadasya putrāṇām ca pautrāṇām
suhṛdām api dṛṣṭvā dṛṣṭvā ghoram kadanam cakāra
62. And the immensely mighty one, repeatedly encountering them, brought about a dreadful slaughter of Drupada's sons, grandsons, and even his friends.

63. And Drauṇi, Drona's son, who was skilled in sword fighting, repeatedly attacked and cut down other men (puruṣa) with his sword.
कालीं रक्तास्यनयनां रक्तमाल्यानुलेपनाम् ।

64. (He beheld) a singular dark-skinned goddess, (like) Kālī, whose face and eyes were red, adorned with red garlands and smeared with red ointments, dressed in red garments, holding a noose in her hand, and crowned with a crest.
ददृशुः कालरात्रिं ते स्मयमानामवस्थिताम् ।

तावप्याचख्यतुस्तस्मै प्रियं प्रियकरौ तदा ।

141. Then, those two pleasing individuals recounted to him the pleasant news that the Pañcālas and Sṛñjayas had been annihilated by the thousands. With joy, they also cried out loudly and similarly clapped their hands.

142. hi sā evaṃvidhā rātriḥ somakānām janakṣaye
prasuptānām pramattānām subhṛśadāruṇā āsīt
142. Indeed, such was that night for the Somakas, a night marked by the annihilation of their people. For those who were asleep and heedless, it proved to be exceedingly dreadful.
असंशयं हि कालस्य पर्यायो दुरतिक्रमः ।
तादृशा निहता यत्र कृत्वास्माकं जनक्षयम् ॥१४३॥

143. hi asaṃśayam kālasya paryāyaḥ duratikramaḥ
yatra asmākam janakṣayam kṛtvā tādṛśāḥ nihatāḥ
143. Indeed, without doubt, the course of time is irresistible, a turn of events where such powerful individuals, after causing the annihilation of our people, were themselves slain.
धृतराष्ट्र उवाच ।

144. dhṛtarāṣṭra uvāca kasmāt mahārathaḥ drauṇiḥ etat sumahat
īdṛśam karma prāk eva matputravijaye dhṛtaḥ na akarot
144. Dhṛtarāṣṭra said: 'Why did Droṇi, this great warrior (mahāratha), not perform such a magnificent deed earlier, when he was engaged in securing the victory of my sons?'
अथ कस्माद्धते क्षत्रे कर्मेदं कृतवानसौ ।
द्रोणपुत्रो महेष्वासस्तन्मे शंसितुमर्हसि ॥१४५॥
145. atha kasmāddhate kṣatre karmedaṁ kṛtavānasau ,

145. atha kasmāt hate kṣatre karma idam kṛtavān asau

145. atha kasmāt asau droṇaputraḥ maheṣvāsaḥ hate
kṣatre idam karma kṛtavān tat me śaṃsitum arhasi
145. Now, why did Drona's son, the great archer, perform this deed (karma) after the warriors had been slain? You ought to explain that to me.
संजय उवाच ।
तेषां नूनं भयान्नासौ कृतवान्कुरुनन्दन ।
असांनिध्याद्धि पार्थानां केशवस्य च धीमतः ॥१४६॥
146. saṁjaya uvāca ,
teṣāṁ nūnaṁ bhayānnāsau kṛtavānkurunandana ,
asāṁnidhyāddhi pārthānāṁ keśavasya ca dhīmataḥ.
146. saṃjaya uvāca teṣām nūnam bhayāt na asau kṛtavān
kurunandana asāṃnidhyāt hi pārthānām keśavasya ca dhīmataḥ
146. saṃjaya uvāca kurunandana asau nūnam teṣām bhayāt na
kṛtavān hi pārthānām dhīmataḥ keśavasya ca asāṃnidhyāt
146. Saṃjaya said: O delight of the Kurus, he (Aśvatthāmā) surely did not perform that act out of fear of them. Indeed, it was due to the absence of the Pārthas and the intelligent Keśava (Kṛṣṇa).
सात्यकेश्चापि कर्मेदं द्रोणपुत्रेण साधितम् ।
न हि तेषां समक्षं तान्हन्यादपि मरुत्पतिः ॥१४७॥
147. sātyakeścāpi karmedaṁ droṇaputreṇa sādhitam ,
na hi teṣāṁ samakṣaṁ tānhanyādapi marutpatiḥ.
147. sātyakeḥ ca api karma idam droṇaputreṇa sādhitam
na hi teṣām samakṣam tān hanyāt api marutpatiḥ
147. ca api idam karma droṇaputreṇa sātyakeḥ sādhitam
hi teṣām samakṣam api marutpatiḥ tān na hanyāt
147. And this very deed (karma) was accomplished by Drona's son even in Sātyaki's absence. For indeed, not even the lord of the Maruts (Indra) would kill them in their presence.
एतदीदृशकं वृत्तं राजन्सुप्तजने विभो ।
ततो जनक्षयं कृत्वा पाण्डवानां महात्ययम् ।
दिष्ट्या दिष्ट्येति चान्योन्यं समेत्योचुर्महारथाः ॥१४८॥
148. etadīdṛśakaṁ vṛttaṁ rājansuptajane vibho ,
tato janakṣayaṁ kṛtvā pāṇḍavānāṁ mahātyayam ,
diṣṭyā diṣṭyeti cānyonyaṁ sametyocurmahārathāḥ.
148. etat īdṛśakam vṛttam rājan suptajane

148. rājan vibho etat īdṛśakam vṛttam
suptajane tataḥ pāṇḍavānām janakṣayam
mahātyayam kṛtvā ca diṣṭyā diṣṭyā
iti anyonyam sametya mahārathāḥ ūcuḥ
148. O King, O mighty one, such was this event among sleeping people. Then, having caused the destruction of the people - a great calamity for the Pāṇḍavas - the great warriors, having come together, exclaimed to each other, 'Fortunately! Fortunately!'
पर्यष्वजत्ततो द्रौणिस्ताभ्यां च प्रतिनन्दितः ।
इदं हर्षाच्च सुमहदाददे वाक्यमुत्तमम् ॥१४९॥
149. paryaṣvajattato drauṇistābhyāṁ ca pratinanditaḥ ,

149. paryaṣvajad tataḥ drauṇiḥ tābhyām ca pratinanditaḥ
idam harṣāt ca sumahat ādade vākyam uttamam
149. tataḥ drauṇiḥ tābhyām ca pratinanditaḥ paryaṣvajad
ca harṣāt idam sumahat uttamam vākyam ādade
149. Then Drauṇi embraced them, and having been greeted in return by them, he joyfully uttered these excellent and very significant words.
पाञ्चाला निहताः सर्वे द्रौपदेयाश्च सर्वशः ।
सोमका मत्स्यशेषाश्च सर्वे विनिहता मया ॥१५०॥
150. pāñcālā nihatāḥ sarve draupadeyāśca sarvaśaḥ ,
somakā matsyaśeṣāśca sarve vinihatā mayā.
150. pāñcālāḥ nihatāḥ sarve draupadeyāḥ ca sarvaśaḥ
somakāḥ matsyaśeṣāḥ ca sarve vinihatāḥ mayā
150. sarve pāñcālāḥ nihatāḥ ca sarvaśaḥ draupadeyāḥ
ca sarve somakāḥ matsyaśeṣāḥ mayā vinihatāḥ
150. All the Pañcālas have been killed, and all the sons of Draupadī entirely. All the Somakas and the remaining Matsyas have also been slain by me.
इदानीं कृतकृत्याः स्म याम तत्रैव माचिरम् ।
यदि जीवति नो राजा तस्मै शंसामहे प्रियम् ॥१५१॥
151. idānīṁ kṛtakṛtyāḥ sma yāma tatraiva māciram ,
yadi jīvati no rājā tasmai śaṁsāmahe priyam.
151. idānīm kṛtakṛtyāḥ sma yāma tatra eva mā ciram
yadi jīvati naḥ rājā tasmai śaṃsāmahe priyam
151. idānīm vayam kṛtakṛtyāḥ sma mā ciram tatra eva
yāma yadi naḥ rājā jīvati tasmai priyam śaṃsāmahe
151. Now we have accomplished our purpose; let us go there without delay. If our king is still alive, we shall announce the good news to him.
