Like fire burning down a heap of dry grass, grief is corroding my heart since I have heard of Dhananjaya's entrance into my army. I see that all the king's of the earth with the ruler of the Sindhus amongst them, are under the influence of adverse Fate.
तदाप्रभृति मां शोको दहत्यग्निरिवाशयम्। ग्रस्तानिव प्रपश्यामि भूमिपालान् ससैन्धवान्।॥
