My mighty, sons and grandsons have been slain, as also my friends and brothers, what can it be but Destiny? Truly man takes his birth, subject to Destiny.
निहताः समरे सर्वे किमन्यद् भागधेयतः। पुत्राश्च मे विनिहताः पौत्राश्चैव महाबलाः॥ वयस्या भ्रातरश्चैव किमन्यद् भागधेयतः। भागधेयसमायुक्तो ध्रुवमुत्पद्यते नरः॥
