I regard, indeed, this to be my bounden duty, O charioteer, when women and infants wail aloud for assistance and when Dhartarastra's pride has been humiliated. So I shall this day conquer the enemies of the monarch (Duryodhana)
सम्प्राक्रुष्टे रुदितस्त्रीकुमारे पराहते पौरुषे धार्तराष्ट्र। मया कृत्यमिति जानामि सूत तस्माद् राज्ञस्त्वद्य शत्रून् विजेष्ये॥
