Your heart is inclined to fly away from battle. What then, O Kaurava, will you do when you will see the wielder of the Gandiva in battle or Bhimasena of the twins, Nakula and Sahadeva. The arrows of Satyaki, afraid of which you are seeking to fly away, are scarcely equal to those of Arjuna, that resemble the sun or the fire in effulgence? If your heart is intent on flying away.
पलायने तव मतिः संग्रामाद्धि प्रवर्तते। यदा गाण्डीवधन्वानं भीमसेनं च कौरव॥ यमौ वा युधि द्रष्टासि तदा त्वं कि करिष्यसि। युधि फाल्गुनबाणानां सूर्याग्निसमवर्चसाम्॥ न तुल्याः सात्यकिशराः येषां भीतः पलायसे।
