Shalya said O fire of kings, in the present circumstances what help can I render to you? I shall of course fight on behalf of your enemy, for I have been made one of their party by the Kurus with their wealth.
शल्य उवाच किमत्र ब्रूहि साह्यं ते करोमि नृपसत्तम। कामं योत्स्ये परस्यार्थे बद्धोऽस्म्यर्थेन कौरवैः॥
