That army is now like a panic-stricken herd of kine deprived of its herdsman. When he who possessed prowess superior to that of every man, has fallen in the field of battle, (I guess) what is the mind of my army. O Sanjaya, what power is there in our life.
अगोपमिव चोद्भ्रान्तं गोकुलं तद् बलं मम। पौरुषं सर्वलोकस्य परं यस्मिन् महाहवे॥ परासक्ते च वस्तस्मिन् कथमासीन्मनस्तदा। जीवितेऽप्यद्य सामर्थ्य किमिवास्मासु संजय॥
