तमात्तचक्रं प्रणदन्तमुच्चैः क्रुद्धं महेन्द्रावरजं समीक्ष्य । सर्वाणि भूतानि भृशं विनेदुः क्षयं कुरूणामिति चिन्तयित्वा॥६-५५-९१॥
Seeing the younger brother of Mahendra (Kṛṣṇa)—wrathful, holding the discus and roaring aloud—all beings cried out in grievous distress, thinking: “This is the destruction of the Kurus.”
english translation
स वासुदेवः प्रगृहीतचक्रः संवर्तयिष्यन्निव जीवलोकम् । अभ्युत्पतंल्लोकगुरुर्बभासे भूतानि धक्ष्यन्निव कालवह्निः॥६-५५-९२॥
That Vāsudeva, holding the discus, appeared as though about to cast the living world into dissolution; springing forward, the teacher of the worlds shone like the fire of Time, as if to consume all beings.
english translation
तमापतन्तं प्रगृहीतचक्रं समीक्ष्य देवं द्विपदां वरिष्ठम् । असंभ्रमात्कार्मुकबाणपाणी रथे स्थितः शांतनवोऽभ्युवाच॥६-५५-९३॥
Observing that god—the foremost among bipeds—rushing forward with the discus in hand, Śāṃtanava (Bhīṣma), standing on his chariot with bow and arrows, addressed him without agitation.
english translation
एह्येहि देवेश जगन्निवास नमोऽस्तु ते शार्ङ्गरथाङ्गपाणे । प्रसह्य मां पातय लोकनाथ रथोत्तमाद्भूतशरण्य संख्ये॥६-५५-९४॥
“Come, come, Lord of the gods, abode of the universe—homage to you, O bearer of the Śārṅga bow, the chariot, and the discus. Overpower me and cast me down from this excellent chariot, O refuge of beings, O lord of the world, here in this engagement.”
english translation
त्वया हतस्येह ममाद्य कृष्ण श्रेयः परस्मिन्निह चैव लोके । संभावितोऽस्म्यन्धकवृष्णिनाथ लोकैस्त्रिभिर्वीर तवाभियानात्॥६-५५-९५॥
If today I am brought down here by you, O Kṛṣṇa, it will be for my welfare—both in this world and in the world beyond. O lord of the Andhakas and Vṛṣṇis, hero, I am honored by the three worlds because you have advanced against me.
