Lives on, O Krishna, as if in unconsciousness and his purposes are foiled at every step. Those who are modest, prudent, honourable, kind and wise are killed in battle; while a wicked avoids defeat. Even after killing the enemy we become a prey to repentance, OJanardana.
निर्वेदो जीविते कृष्ण सर्वतश्चोपजायते। ये ह्येव धीरा ह्रीमन्त आर्याः करुणवेदिनः॥ त एव युद्धे हन्यन्ते यवीयान् मुच्यते जनः। हत्वाप्यनुशयो नित्यं परानपि जनार्दन॥
