Let Karna, the son of Vikartan, who is foremost of men and who is a brave warrior, attain the best region and let him be like the Vasus or Maruts; let him be adored in heaven with Bhishma and Drona, but let the two Krishnas be victorious.
कर्णो लोकानयं मुख्यानाप्नोतु पुरुषर्षभः। कर्णो वैकर्तनः शूरौ विजयस्त्वस्तु कृष्णयोः॥ वसूनां समलोकत्वं मरुतां वा समाप्नुयात्। सहितो द्रोणभीष्माभ्यां नाकलोकमवाप्नुयात्॥
