ते चेदिपाञ्चालकरूषमत्स्याः पार्थाश्च सर्वे सहिताः प्रणेदुः । वित्रास्य सेनां ध्वजिनीपतीनां सिंहो मृगाणामिव यूथसंघान् । विनेदतुस्तावतिहर्षयुक्तौ गाण्डीवधन्वा च जनार्दनश्च॥६-५५-१२६॥
Then the Cedis, Pāñcālas, Karūṣas, Matsyas, and all the Pārthas together raised a great roar, unsettling the forces of the army-commanders—like a lion scattering herds of deer. At that time the wielder of Gāṇḍīva and Janārdana also sounded their calls, filled with exhilaration.
english translation
ततो रविं संहृतरश्मिजालं दृष्ट्वा भृशं शस्त्रपरिक्षताङ्गाः । तदैन्द्रमस्त्रं विततं सुघोरमसह्यमुद्वीक्ष्य युगान्तकल्पम्॥६-५५-१२७॥
Then, seeing the sun with its net of rays withdrawn, and being grievously wounded by weapons, they looked upon the Indra-weapon spread forth—exceedingly formidable, unbearable to behold, resembling a world-ending catastrophe.
english translation
अथापयानं कुरवः सभीष्माः सद्रोणदुर्योधनबाह्लिकाश्च । चक्रुर्निशां संधिगतां समीक्ष्य विभावसोर्लोहितराजियुक्ताम्॥६-५५-१२८॥
Thereafter the Kurus—together with Bhīṣma, Droṇa, Duryodhana, and Bāhlika—began to withdraw, observing that night had arrived, marked by the sun’s reddish streaks at twilight.
english translation
अवाप्य कीर्तिं च यशश्च लोके विजित्य शत्रूंश्च धनंजयोऽपि । ययौ नरेन्द्रैः सह सोदरैश्च समाप्तकर्मा शिबिरं निशायाम् । ततः प्रजज्ञे तुमुलः कुरूणां निशामुखे घोरतरः प्रणादः॥६-५५-१२९॥
Having attained renown and fame in the world, and having overcome his adversaries, Dhanaṃjaya too—his operation concluded—went to the camp at night along with the kings and his brothers. Thereupon, at the beginning of night, a tumultuous and even more dreadful clamor arose among the Kurus.
english translation
रणे रथानामयुतं निहत्य हता गजाः सप्तशतार्जुनेन । प्राच्याश्च सौवीरगणाश्च सर्वे निपातिताः क्षुद्रकमालवाश्च । महत्कृतं कर्म धनंजयेन कर्तुं यथा नार्हति कश्चिदन्यः॥६-५५-१३०॥
In the battle, Arjuna neutralized ten thousand chariots, and by him seven hundred elephants were brought down. The Prācyas and all the Sauvīra contingents were also felled, as were the Kṣudrakas and the Mālavas. A mighty deed was accomplished by Dhanaṃjaya—such as no other could readily perform.
