36. Sanjaya said: Thus addressed by Dharmarāja, Dhanaṃjaya (Arjuna), saying "So be it," commanded his own armies and himself proceeded to the vanguard of the army.
अथ तं रथमायान्तं दृष्ट्वात्यद्भुतदर्शनम् ।

37. Then, having seen that approaching chariot, which had an exceedingly wondrous appearance, Shalya again spoke to Adhirathi (Karṇa), who was fierce in battle.
अयं स रथ आयाति श्वेताश्वः कृष्णसारथिः ।

38. saḥ rathaḥ āyāti ayam śvetāśvaḥ kṛṣṇasārathiḥ
amitrān nighnan kaunteyaḥ yam yam tvam paripṛcchasi
38. That is the chariot approaching, drawn by white horses and with Kṛṣṇa as its charioteer. This is Kaunteya (Arjuna), slaying his enemies, whom you keep inquiring about.

40. O Karna, the earth itself trembles, propelled by the rims of chariot wheels. A mighty wind blows all around your army. These carnivorous animals cry out, and other beasts make dreadful sounds.

44. O Karna, your white horses are yoked to your great chariot. These darts are blazing brightly, and your banner is indeed trembling.

46. karṇa dhruvam eṣu nimitteṣu bhūmim āvṛtya pārthivāḥ
nihatāḥ śataśaḥ atha sahasraśaḥ svapsyanti
46. O Karna, these omens surely indicate that kings, filling the earth, will lie dead, slain by hundreds and thousands.
शङ्खानां तुमुलः शब्दः श्रूयते लोमहर्षणः ।
आनकानां च राधेय मृदङ्गानां च सर्वशः ॥४७॥

48. karṇa mahātmanām bahuvidhān bāṇaśabdān
narāśvarathanisvanān jyātalatreṣuśabdān ca śṛṇu
48. O Karna, listen to the various sounds of arrows, the noises of men, horses, and chariots, and the sounds of bowstrings, finger-guards, and arrows, all coming from the great warriors (mahātman).
हेमरूप्यप्रमृष्टानां वाससां शिल्पिनिर्मिताः ।

49. On the chariot, banners of various colors, skillfully crafted and adorned with gold and silver, flutter and shine, trembling in the wind.
सहेमचन्द्रतारार्काः पताकाः किङ्किणीयुताः ।

kiṅkiṇīyutāḥ patākāḥ ambude saudāminyaḥ iva paśya
50. O Karna, behold these banners of Arjuna, adorned with golden moons, stars, and suns, and furnished with tinkling bells, shining like streaks of lightning in a cloud.
ध्वजाः कणकणायन्ते वातेनाभिसमीरिताः ।

52. asya tāvakān nāgāśvarathapattyaughān samabhighnataḥ dhvajāgram dṛśyate,
tu ca jyāśabdaḥ api śrūyate
52. As your multitudes of elephants, horses, chariots, and infantry are being decimated, his banner-top (dhvajāgra) becomes visible, and the sound of his bowstring (jyāśabda) is also heard.
अद्य द्रष्टासि तं वीरं श्वेताश्वं कृष्णसारथिम् ।

53. karṇa,
adya tvam yam paripṛcchasi,

53. Today, Karna, you will see that hero (vīra) with white horses and Kṛṣṇa as his charioteer, slaying enemies (śātravān) in battle (saṅkhye) – the very one about whom you inquire.
अद्य तौ पुरुषव्याघ्रौ लोहिताक्षौ परंतपौ ।

54. karṇa,
adya tvam tū puruṣavyāghrau lohitākṣau paraṃtapau vāsudevārjunau ekarathasthitau draṣṭā asi
54. Today, Karna, you will see those two supreme men (puruṣavyāghrau), Vāsudeva and Arjuna, both having reddish eyes and being tormentors of foes (paraṃtapau), standing together on a single chariot (ekarathasthitau).
सारथिर्यस्य वार्ष्णेयो गाण्डीवं यस्य कार्मुकम् ।

yasya sārathiḥ vārṣṇeyaḥ,
yasya kārmukam gāṇḍīvam,
cet tvam tam hantā asi,
(tadā) naḥ rājā bhaviṣyasi
55. O son of Rādhā (Rādheya), if you manage to kill that one whose charioteer is Vārṣṇeya (Kṛṣṇa) and whose bow is the Gāṇḍīva, then you shall become our king.
एष संशप्तकाहूतस्तानेवाभिमुखो गतः ।

abhimukhaḥ gataḥ eṣām dviṣatām saṃgrāme

56. Śalya said: "This powerful (Arjuna), having been challenged by the Saṃśaptakas, has gone to face them and is indeed causing great destruction to these enemies in battle." To the king of Madra (Śalya), who was speaking thus, Karṇa, filled with excessive anger, replied.
पश्य संशप्तकैः क्रुद्धैः सर्वतः समभिद्रुतः ।
एष सूर्य इवाम्भोदैश्छन्नः पार्थो न दृश्यते ।

etadanto'rjunaḥ śalya nimagnaḥ śokasāgare.
57. paśya saṃśaptakaiḥ kruddhaiḥ sarvataḥ

57. paśya eṣaḥ pārthaḥ saṃśaptakaiḥ
kruddhaiḥ sarvataḥ samabhidrutaḥ ambhodaiḥ
sūryaḥ iva na dṛśyate śalya
arjunaḥ etadantaḥ śokasāgare nimagnaḥ
57. Behold! This Arjuna, surrounded on all sides by the enraged Saṃśaptakas, is not visible, just like the sun is covered by clouds. O Śalya, Arjuna's end is near; he is submerged in an ocean of sorrow.
शल्य उवाच ।
वरुणं कोऽम्भसा हन्यादिन्धनेन च पावकम् ।
को वानिलं निगृह्णीयात्पिबेद्वा को महार्णवम् ॥५८॥
58. śalya uvāca ,

58. śalyaḥ uvāca varuṇam kaḥ ambhasā hanyāt indhanena ca
pāvakam kaḥ vā anilam nigṛhṇīyāt pibet vā kaḥ mahārṇavam
58. śalyaḥ uvāca kaḥ varuṇam ambhasā hanyāt ca kaḥ pāvakam
indhanena kaḥ vā anilam nigṛhṇīyāt vā kaḥ mahārṇavam pibet
58. Śalya said: "Who could kill Varuṇa with water, or fire with fuel? Or who could restrain the wind, or drink up the great ocean?"
ईदृग्रूपमहं मन्ये पार्थस्य युधि निग्रहम् ।
न हि शक्योऽर्जुनो जेतुं सेन्द्रैः सर्वैः सुरासुरैः ॥५९॥
59. īdṛgrūpamahaṁ manye pārthasya yudhi nigraham ,

59. īdṛgrūpam aham manye pārthasya yudhi nigraham na hi

59. aham manye pārthasya yudhi nigraham īdṛgrūpam hi
arjunaḥ sendraiḥ sarvaiḥ surāsuraiḥ jetum na śakyaḥ
59. I believe that defeating Arjuna in battle is of such an impossible nature. Indeed, Arjuna cannot be conquered even by all the gods and asuras (demons) combined, including Indra.
अथैवं परितोषस्ते वाचोक्त्वा सुमना भव ।
न स शक्यो युधा जेतुमन्यं कुरु मनोरथम् ॥६०॥
60. athaivaṁ paritoṣaste vācoktvā sumanā bhava ,

60. atha evam te paritoṣaḥ vācā uktvā sumanā bhava
saḥ yudhā jetum na śakyaḥ anyam manoratham kuru
60. Therefore, having expressed your satisfaction in this manner, calm your mind. He cannot be defeated in battle; make another plan.
बाहुभ्यामुद्धरेद्भूमिं दहेत्क्रुद्ध इमाः प्रजाः ।

61. yaḥ arjunam samare jayet saḥ bāhubhyām bhūmim uddharet
kruddhaḥ imāḥ prajāḥ dahet tridivāt devān pātayet
61. Whoever could conquer Arjuna in battle, that person would be capable of lifting the earth with their arms, burning these creatures in a rage, and casting down the gods from heaven.
पश्य कुन्तीसुतं वीरं भीममक्लिष्टकारिणम् ।

prabhāsantam mahābāhum sthitam merum iva acalam
62. paśya kuntīsutam vīram akliṣṭakāriṇam prabhāsantam
mahābāhum bhīmam acalam merum iva sthitam
62. Behold the heroic son of Kunti, Bhima, who accomplishes deeds with ease, shining brightly, mighty-armed, standing firm like an immovable Meru mountain.
अमर्षी नित्यसंरब्धश्चिरं वैरमनुस्मरन् ।
एष भीमो जयप्रेप्सुर्युधि तिष्ठति वीर्यवान् ॥६३॥

63. eṣaḥ amarṣī nityasaṃrabdhaḥ ciram vairam anusmaran
jayaprepsuḥ vīryavān bhīmaḥ yudhi tiṣṭhati
63. This Bhima, unforgiving and perpetually enraged, remembering the long-standing hostility, stands valorous in battle, eager for victory.
एष धर्मभृतां श्रेष्ठो धर्मराजो युधिष्ठिरः ।
तिष्ठत्यसुकरः संख्ये परैः परपुरंजयः ॥६४॥

64. This is Yudhishthira, the best among the upholders of natural law (dharma), the king of natural law (dharma). He stands in battle, difficult for enemies to overcome, the conqueror of enemy cities.
एतौ च पुरुषव्याघ्रावश्विनाविव सोदरौ ।
नकुलः सहदेवश्च तिष्ठतो युधि दुर्जयौ ॥६५॥
65. etau ca puruṣavyāghrāvaśvināviva sodarau ,

65. ca etau puruṣavyāghrau aśvinau iva sodarau
nakulaḥ ca sahadevaḥ durjayau yudhi tiṣṭhataḥ
65. And these two tiger-like men, Nakula and Sahadeva, stand in battle like the Ashvins, unconquerable; they are uterine brothers.
दृश्यन्त एते कार्ष्णेयाः पञ्च पञ्चाचला इव ।
व्यवस्थिता योत्स्यमानाः सर्वेऽर्जुनसमा युधि ॥६६॥
66. dṛśyanta ete kārṣṇeyāḥ pañca pañcācalā iva ,

66. ete pañca kārṣṇeyāḥ pañcācalāḥ iva vyavasthitāḥ
yotsyamānāḥ sarve arjunasamāḥ yudhi dṛśyante
66. These five sons of Draupadī (Kārṣṇeyas) are seen, arrayed like five mountains, all equal to Arjuna in battle and about to fight.
एते द्रुपदपुत्राश्च धृष्टद्युम्नपुरोगमाः ।
हीनाः सत्यजिता वीरास्तिष्ठन्ति परमौजसः ॥६७॥
67. ete drupadaputrāśca dhṛṣṭadyumnapurogamāḥ ,

67. ca ete dhṛṣṭadyumnapurogamāḥ drupadaputrāḥ
hīnāḥ satyajitā vīrāḥ paramaujasaḥ tiṣṭhanti
67. And these sons of Drupada, led by Dhṛṣṭadyumna, stand as heroes of supreme might (paramaujasa), though they are without Satyajit.
इति संवदतोरेव तयोः पुरुषसिंहयोः ।
ते सेने समसज्जेतां गङ्गायमुनवद्भृशम् ॥६८॥
68. iti saṁvadatoreva tayoḥ puruṣasiṁhayoḥ ,

68. iti tayoḥ puruṣasiṃhayoḥ saṃvadatoḥ eva te
sene gaṅgāyamunavat bhṛśam samasajjetām
68. Thus, even as those two lion-like men (puruṣasiṃha) were speaking, those two armies swiftly arrayed themselves like the confluence of the Gaṅgā and Yamunā rivers.
