|
| 1 | tataḥ karṇaḥ kuruṣu pradruteṣu; varūthinā śvetahayena rājan
pāñcālaputrān vyadhamat sūtaputro; maheṣubhir vāta ivābhrasaṃghān
|

śatānīkaṃ sutasomaṃ ca bhallair; avākirad dhanuṣī cāpy akṛntat

hatvā cāśvān sātyakeḥ sūtaputraḥ; kaikeyaputraṃ nyavadhīd viśokam
|
| 4 | tam abhyadhāvan nihate kumāre; kaikeyasenāpatir ugradhanvā
śarair vibhinnaṃ bhṛśam ugravegaiḥ; karṇātmajaṃ so 'bhyahanat suṣeṇam
|

pracchādya nṛtyann iva sautiputraḥ; śaineyabāṇābhihataḥ papāta

hato 'si śaineya iti bruvan sa; vyavāsṛjad bāṇam amitrasāham
|

apāñcālyaṃ kriyate yāhi pārtha; karṇaṃ jahīty abravīd rājasiṃha
|

bhaye teṣāṃ trāṇam icchan subāhur; abhyāhatānāṃ rathayūthapena

tau rājaputrau tvaritau rathābhyāṃ; karṇāya yātāv aribhir vimuktau
|

nirudyamās tasthur amitramardanā; yathendriyārthātmavatā parājitāḥ

vidārya karṇaṃ niśitair ayasmayais; tavātmajaṃ jyeṣṭham avidhyad aṣṭabhiḥ
