| 1 | athāparo 'dṛśyata pāṇḍavaḥ prabhur; virāṭarājñas turagān samīkṣataḥ

tato 'bravīt tān anugān amitrahā; kuto 'yam āyāti naro 'maraprabhaḥ

ayaṃ hayān vīkṣati māmakān dṛḍhaṃ; dhruvaṃ hayajño bhavitā vicakṣaṇaḥ
praveśyatām eṣa samīpam āśu me; vibhāti vīro hi yathāmaras tathā
|
| 4 | abhyetya rājānam amitrahābravīj; jayo 'stu te pārthiva bhadram astu ca
hayeṣu yukto nṛpa saṃmataḥ sadā; tavāśvasūto nipuṇo bhavāmy aham

duṣṭānāṃ pratipattiṃ ca kṛtsnaṃ caiva cikitsitam

na kātaraṃ syān mama jātu vāhanaṃ; na me 'sti duṣṭā vaḍavā kuto hayāḥ
janas tu mām āha sa cāpi pāṇḍavo; yudhiṣṭhiro granthikam eva nāmataḥ

|
| 9 | yad asti kiṃ cin mama vājivāhanaṃ; tad astu sarvaṃ tvadadhīnam adya vai
ye cāpi ke cin mama vājiyojakās; tvadāśrayāḥ sārathayaś ca santu me

kathaṃ tu bhṛtyaiḥ sa vinākṛto vane; vasaty anindyo ramate ca pāṇḍavaḥ

na cainam anye 'pi viduḥ kathaṃ cana; priyābhirāmaṃ vicarantam antarā

ajñātacaryāṃ vyacaran samāhitāḥ; samudranemīpatayo 'tiduḥkhitāḥ
