त्वमिमं पुण्डरीकाक्षमप्रधृष्यं दुरासदम् । पापैः सहायैः संहत्य निग्रहीतुं किलेच्छसि॥५-१२८-३६॥
You, having gathered wicked allies, seem to wish to restrain this lotus-eyed one—unassailable and difficult to approach.
english translation
यो न शक्यो बलात्कर्तुं देवैरपि सवासवैः । तं त्वं प्रार्थयसे मन्द बालश्चन्द्रमसं यथा॥५-१२८-३७॥
He whom even the gods, together with Vāsava (Indra), cannot compel by force—you, foolish one, seek to compel him, like a child trying to grasp the moon.
english translation
देवैर्मनुष्यैर्गन्धर्वैरसुरैरुरगैश्च यः । न सोढुं समरे शक्यस्तं न बुध्यसि केशवम्॥५-१२८-३८॥
He whom gods, humans, Gandharvas, Asuras, and serpentine beings cannot withstand in battle—you do not recognize that Keśava.
english translation
दुर्ग्रहः पाणिना वायुर्दुःस्पर्शः पाणिना शशी । दुर्धरा पृथिवी मूर्ध्ना दुर्ग्रहः केशवो बलात्॥५-१२८-३९॥
Hard to seize with the hand is the wind; hard to touch with the hand is the moon; hard to bear the earth upon the head—so too Keśava is hard to seize by force.
english translation
इत्युक्ते धृतराष्ट्रेण क्षत्तापि विदुरोऽब्रवीत् । दुर्योधनमभिप्रेक्ष्य धार्तराष्ट्रममर्षणम्॥५-१२८-४०॥
When Dhṛtarāṣṭra had spoken thus, Vidura the chamberlain also spoke, looking toward Duryodhana, the Dhārtarāṣṭra prince, intolerant of restraint.
