न ह्यपश्यं कंचिदहं पृथिव्यां श्रुतं समं वाधिकमर्जुनेन । यस्यैकषष्टिर्निशितास्तीक्ष्णधाराः सुवाससः संमतो हस्तवापः॥५-२३-२१॥
For I have not seen—nor even heard of—anyone on this earth who is equal to, much less superior to, Arjuna; for his hand is acclaimed as a “weaver” of arrows, ever producing sixty-one keen, razor-edged shafts in swift succession.
english translation
गदापाणिर्भीमसेनस्तरस्वी प्रवेपयञ्शत्रुसंघाननीके । नागः प्रभिन्न इव नड्वलासु चङ्क्रम्यते कच्चिदेनं स्मरन्ति॥५-२३-२२॥
Do they remember swift and mighty Bhīmasena, mace in hand, who makes the enemy hosts tremble in the battle-line, ranging among them like a furious elephant in rut trampling through a bed of reeds?
english translation
माद्रीपुत्रः सहदेवः कलिङ्गान्समागतानजयद्दन्तकूरे । वामेनास्यन्दक्षिणेनैव यो वै महाबलं कच्चिदेनं स्मरन्ति॥५-२३-२३॥
Do they still remember Sahadeva, son of Mādrī, who at Dantakūra defeated the assembled Kaliṅgas—he who, with left hand and with right, overcame that mighty host?
english translation
उद्यन्नयं नकुलः प्रेषितो वै गावल्गणे संजय पश्यतस्ते । दिशं प्रतीचीं वशमानयन्मे माद्रीसुतं कच्चिदेनं स्मरन्ति॥५-२३-२४॥
O Sañjaya, son of Gāvalgaṇa, before your very eyes Nakula was dispatched at dawn to bring the western quarter under my sway. Do they still remember this son of Mādrī?
english translation
अभ्याभवो द्वैतवने य आसीद्दुर्मन्त्रिते घोषयात्रागतानाम् । यत्र मन्दाञ्शत्रुवशं प्रयातानमोचयद्भीमसेनो जयश्च॥५-२३-२५॥
The reverse that befell at Dvaitavana—through ill counsel—when those who came for the cattle-expedition were overpowered: there Bhīmasena, and Jaya as well, freed those who had helplessly fallen under the enemy’s control.
