युद्धकाण्डम्/सर्गः_७१6.71.p18441

Sanskrit · 6.71.p18441

बालस्त्वमसि सौमित्रे विक्रमेष्वविचक्षणः। गच्छ किं कालसंकाशं मां योधयितुमिच्छसि॥ ५१॥

English · Meaning

You are a child, O son of Sumitrā, unskilled in feats of valor. Go away. Why do you wish to fight me, who am like Time?

6.71.p184411 / 50
युद्धकाण्डम्/सर्गः_७१6.71.p18442

Sanskrit · 6.71.p18442

नहि मद‍्बाहुसृष्टानां बाणानां हिमवानपि। सोढुमुत्सहते वेगमन्तरिक्षमथो मही॥ ५२॥

English · Meaning

For not even Himavat can endure the force of the arrows released from my arm; nor can the sky, and then the earth, endure it.

6.71.p184422 / 50
युद्धकाण्डम्/सर्गः_७१6.71.p18443

Sanskrit · 6.71.p18443

सुखप्रसुप्तं कालाग्निं विबोधयितुमिच्छसि। न्यस्य चापं निवर्तस्व प्राणान्न जहि मद‍्गतः॥ ५३॥

English · Meaning

You wish to awaken Kāla-fire, lying peacefully asleep. Lay down your bow and turn back; do not destroy your life, having come to me. The transmitted final phrase is grammatically compressed: मद्गतः literally means “having come to me” or “gone to me,” and its exact relation to the command is uncertain.

6.71.p184433 / 50

Sanskrit · 6.71.p18444

अथवा त्वं प्रतिस्तब्धो न निवर्तितुमिच्छसि। तिष्ठ प्राणान् परित्यज्य गमिष्यसि यमक्षयम्॥ ५४॥

English · Meaning

Or else, you are obstinate and do not wish to turn back. Stay then; having cast away your life-breaths, you will go to the abode of Yama.

6.71.p184444 / 50

English · Meaning

Behold my sharpened arrows, destroyers of the pride of enemies, resembling the weapons of Īśvara and adorned with heated gold.
