Sanskrit Text

ये ह्येव वीरा ह्रीमन्त आर्याः करुणवेदिनः एव युद्धे हन्यन्ते यवीयान्मुच्यते जनः

English Translation

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.
