वासुदेव उवाच ।
जातस्य भारते वंशे तथा कुन्त्याः सुतस्य च ।
या वै युक्ता मतिः सेयमर्जुनेन प्रदर्शिता ॥१॥
1. vāsudeva uvāca ,
jātasya bhārate vaṁśe tathā kuntyāḥ sutasya ca ,
yā vai yuktā matiḥ seyamarjunena pradarśitā.
1. vāsudeva uvāca jātasya bhārate vaṃśe tathā kuntyāḥ
sutasya ca yā vai yuktā matiḥ sā iyam arjunena pradarśitā
1. Vāsudeva said: This resolve (mati) demonstrated by Arjuna is indeed appropriate for one born in the Bhārata lineage and for the son of Kuntī.

2. na mṛtyoḥ samayam vidma rātrau vā yadi vā divā

2. We do not know the time of death, be it night or day. Nor have we heard of anyone becoming immortal (amaram) without engaging in battle.

नयेन विधिदृष्टेन यदुपक्रमते परान् ॥३॥

3. etāvat eva puruṣaiḥ kāryam hṛdayatoṣaṇam
nayena vidhidṛṣṭena yat upakramate parān
3. This much alone is the action (kāryam) for men that brings satisfaction to the heart: when one assails enemies (parān) with a policy (naya) that is in accordance with the law (vidhidṛṣṭena).

संशयो जायते साम्ये साम्यं च न भवेद्द्वयोः ॥४॥

4. sunayasya anapāyasya saṃyuge paramaḥ kramaḥ
saṃśayaḥ jāyate sāmye sāmyam ca na bhavet dvayoḥ
4. The supreme method (krama) in battle (saṃyuge) comes from a good (sunaya) and unfailing (anapāya) policy. Doubt (saṃśaya) arises from parity (sāmye), and there should be no equality (sāmyam) between two.
ते वयं नयमास्थाय शत्रुदेहसमीपगाः ।

katham antam na gacchema
vṛkṣasya iva nadīrayāḥ pararandhre
parākrāntāḥ svarandhrāvaraṇe sthitāḥ
5. Having adopted a sound policy and being close to the enemy's stronghold, how can we not bring about their destruction, just as powerful river currents can uproot a tree? We must act decisively against their vulnerabilities while maintaining a position that covers our own.

इति बुद्धिमतां नीतिस्तन्ममापीह रोचते ॥६॥

iti buddhimatāṁ nītistanmamāpīha rocate.
6. vyūḍhānīkaiḥ anubalaiḥ na upeyāt balavattaram
iti buddhimatām nītiḥ tat mama api iha rocate
6. One should not engage with a more powerful foe, even if one has arrayed armies and auxiliary forces. This is the maxim (nīti) of the discerning, and it is also pleasing to me here.

शत्रुदेहमुपाक्रम्य तं कामं प्राप्नुयामहे ॥७॥

7. anavadyāḥ hi asaṃbuddhāḥ praviṣṭāḥ śatrusadma
tat śatrudeham upākramya tam kāmam prāpnuyāmahe

8. ekaḥ hi eva śriyam nityam bibharti puruṣarṣabha
antar ātmā iva bhūtānām tat kṣaye vai balakṣayaḥ
8. Indeed, only one individual perpetually sustains prosperity, O best of men. Just as the inner self (ātman) pervades and sustains all beings, so too, upon that individual's downfall, there is certainly a decline of power.
अथ चेत्तं निहत्याजौ शेषेणाभिसमागताः ।
प्राप्नुयाम ततः स्वर्गं ज्ञातित्राणपरायणाः ॥९॥
9. atha cettaṁ nihatyājau śeṣeṇābhisamāgatāḥ ,
prāpnuyāma tataḥ svargaṁ jñātitrāṇaparāyaṇāḥ.
9. atha cet tam nihatya ājau śeṣeṇa abhisamāgatāḥ
prāpnuyāma tataḥ svargam jñātitrāṇaparāyaṇāḥ

10. Yudhiṣṭhira said: 'O Kṛṣṇa, who is this Jarāsandha? What is his valor, and what is his prowess, that he, having touched you, who are like fire, was not burned, unlike a moth (which would be incinerated)?'

बालस्ताम्रतलं मुष्टिं कृत्वा चास्ये निधाय सः ।

42. bālastāmratalaṁ muṣṭiṁ kṛtvā cāsye nidhāya saḥ ,

42. bālaḥ tāmratalam muṣṭim kṛtvā ca āsye nidhāya
saḥ prākrośat atisaṃrambhāt satoyaḥ iva toyadaḥ
42. The child, having made a fist with his red palm and placed it in his mouth, cried out with great fury, just like a rain cloud filled with water.
तेन शब्देन संभ्रान्तः सहसान्तःपुरे जनः ।
निर्जगाम नरव्याघ्र राज्ञा सह परंतप ॥४३॥
43. tena śabdena saṁbhrāntaḥ sahasāntaḥpure janaḥ ,
nirjagāma naravyāghra rājñā saha paraṁtapa.
43. tena śabdena saṃbhrāntaḥ sahasā antaḥpure janaḥ
nirjagāma naravyāghra rājñā saha paraṃtapa
43. O tiger among men, O tormentor of foes, the people in the inner chambers were suddenly startled by that sound and emerged along with the king.
ते चाबले परिग्लाने पयःपूर्णपयोधरे ।
निराशे पुत्रलाभाय सहसैवाभ्यगच्छताम् ॥४४॥
44. te cābale pariglāne payaḥpūrṇapayodhare ,
nirāśe putralābhāya sahasaivābhyagacchatām.
44. te ca abale pariglāne payaḥpūrṇapayodhare
nirāśe putralābhāya sahasā eva abhyagacchatām
44. And those two weak, exhausted women, with breasts full of milk and despairing of a son's birth, suddenly approached.
अथ दृष्ट्वा तथाभूते राजानं चेष्टसंततिम् ।
तं च बालं सुबलिनं चिन्तयामास राक्षसी ॥४५॥
45. atha dṛṣṭvā tathābhūte rājānaṁ ceṣṭasaṁtatim ,
taṁ ca bālaṁ subalinaṁ cintayāmāsa rākṣasī.
45. atha dṛṣṭvā tathābhūte rājānaṃ ca iṣṭasaṃtatim
tam ca bālam subalinam cintayāmāsa rākṣasī
45. Then, upon seeing the king in such a state, yearning for offspring, and also the very strong child, the female demon pondered.
नार्हामि विषये राज्ञो वसन्ती पुत्रगृद्धिनः ।
बालं पुत्रमुपादातुं मेघलेखेव भास्करम् ॥४६॥
46. nārhāmi viṣaye rājño vasantī putragṛddhinaḥ ,
bālaṁ putramupādātuṁ meghalekheva bhāskaram.
46. na arhāmi viṣaye rājñaḥ vasantī putragṛddhinaḥ
bālam putram upādātum meghalekhā iva bhāskaram
46. Dwelling in the territory of the king, who yearns for a son, I should not take this child away, just as a line of clouds should not obscure the sun.
सा कृत्वा मानुषं रूपमुवाच मनुजाधिपम् ।
बृहद्रथ सुतस्तेऽयं मद्दत्तः प्रतिगृह्यताम् ॥४७॥
47. sā kṛtvā mānuṣaṁ rūpamuvāca manujādhipam ,
bṛhadratha sutaste'yaṁ maddattaḥ pratigṛhyatām.
47. sā kṛtvā mānuṣam rūpam uvāca manujādhipam
bṛhadratha sutaḥ te ayam matdattaḥ pratigṛhyatām
47. Assuming a human form, she addressed the king, saying, "O Bṛhadratha, this is your son, given by me; please accept him."
तव पत्नीद्वये जातो द्विजातिवरशासनात् ।
धात्रीजनपरित्यक्तो मयायं परिरक्षितः ॥४८॥
48. tava patnīdvaye jāto dvijātivaraśāsanāt ,
dhātrījanaparityakto mayāyaṁ parirakṣitaḥ.
48. tava patnīdvaye jātaḥ dvijātivaraśāsanāt
dhātrījanaparityaktaḥ mayā ayam parirakṣitaḥ
48. This child was born from your two wives due to the command of the excellent Brahmin, and though abandoned by the wet nurses, he was protected by me.
ततस्ते भरतश्रेष्ठ काशिराजसुते शुभे ।
तं बालमभिपत्याशु प्रस्नवैरभिषिञ्चताम् ॥४९॥
49. tataste bharataśreṣṭha kāśirājasute śubhe ,
taṁ bālamabhipatyāśu prasnavairabhiṣiñcatām.
49. tataḥ te bharataśreṣṭha kāśirājasute śubhe tam
bālam abhipatya āśu prasnavaiḥ abhiṣiñcatām
49. Then, O best among the Bharatas, let those two auspicious daughters of the King of Kāśi quickly approach that child and anoint him with streams (of fluid).
ततः स राजा संहृष्टः सर्वं तदुपलभ्य च ।
अपृच्छन्नवहेमाभां राक्षसीं तामराक्षसीम् ॥५०॥
50. tataḥ sa rājā saṁhṛṣṭaḥ sarvaṁ tadupalabhya ca ,
apṛcchannavahemābhāṁ rākṣasīṁ tāmarākṣasīm.
50. tataḥ saḥ rājā saṃhṛṣṭaḥ sarvam tat upalabhya
ca apṛcchat navahemābhām rākṣasīm tām arākṣasīm
50. Then that king, greatly delighted and having understood all that, questioned that female demon who had the luster of new gold and who appeared non-demonic.
का त्वं कमलगर्भाभे मम पुत्रप्रदायिनी ।
कामया ब्रूहि कल्याणि देवता प्रतिभासि मे ॥५१॥
51. kā tvaṁ kamalagarbhābhe mama putrapradāyinī ,
kāmayā brūhi kalyāṇi devatā pratibhāsi me.
51. kā tvam kamalagarbhābhe mama putrapradāyinī
kāmayā brūhi kalyāṇi devatā pratibhāsi me
51. Who are you, O one with a form like the interior of a lotus, who has granted me a son? Tell me willingly, O auspicious one, for you appear to me as a deity.
