तेनोत्तमास्त्रेण ततो महात्मा सर्वाण्यनीकानि महाधनुष्मान् । शरौघजालैर्विमलाग्निवर्णैर्निवारयामास किरीटमाली॥६-५५-१११॥
With that supreme weapon, the great-souled, mighty archer—the diademed one—then checked all the formations by means of netted streams of arrows, bright as stainless fire.
english translation
शिलीमुखाः पार्थधनुःप्रमुक्ता रथान्ध्वजाग्राणि धनूंषि बाहून् । निकृत्य देहान्विविशुः परेषां नरेन्द्रनागेन्द्रतुरंगमाणाम्॥६-५५-११२॥
Śilīmukha arrows released from Pārtha’s bow cut down chariot standards, bows, and arms, and then pierced the bodies of the opposing kings, elephants, and horses.
english translation
ततो दिशश्चानुदिशश्च पार्थः शरैः सुधारैर्निशितैर्वितत्य । गाण्डीवशब्देन मनांसि तेषां किरीटमाली व्यथयां चकार॥६-५५-११३॥
Then Pārtha spread sharp, keen-edged arrows through the directions and intermediate quarters; and by the thunder of the Gāṇḍīva, the diademed one distressed their minds.

तस्मिंस्तथा घोरतमे प्रवृत्ते शङ्खस्वना दुन्दुभिनिस्वनाश्च । अन्तर्हिता गाण्डिवनिस्वनेन बभूवुरुग्राश्च रणप्रणादाः॥६-५५-११४॥
When that exceedingly fierce engagement was underway, the sounds of conches and dundubhi kettledrums were drowned by the reverberation of the Gāṇḍīva; even the formidable uproar of battle became indistinct.
english translation
गाण्डीवशब्दं तमथो विदित्वा विराटराजप्रमुखा नृवीराः । पाञ्चालराजो द्रुपदश्च वीरस्तं देशमाजग्मुरदीनसत्त्वाः॥६-५५-११५॥
Recognizing the sound of the Gāṇḍīva, the heroic kings—led by King Virāṭa—together with Drupada, king of the Pāñcālas, came to that place, steadfast and unshaken in resolve.
