स चेदेतां प्रतिपद्येत बुद्धिं वृद्धो राजा सह पुत्रेण सूत । एवं रणे पाण्डवकोपदग्धा न नश्येयुः संजय धार्तराष्ट्राः॥५-२६-२६॥
If the aged king, together with his son, were to adopt this counsel, O Sañjaya, then the Dhārtarāṣṭras—scorched by the Pāṇḍavas’ anger in the engagement—would not come to ruin.
english translation
जानासि त्वं क्लेशमस्मासु वृत्तं त्वां पूजयन्संजयाहं क्षमेयम् । यच्चास्माकं कौरवैर्भूतपूर्वं या नो वृत्तिर्धार्तराष्ट्रे तदासीत्॥५-२६-२७॥
You know the hardship that has befallen us; honoring you, O Sañjaya, I am prepared to make amends and seek reconciliation. And you also know what the Kurus once did to us—what our condition was under the Dhārtarāṣṭras.
english translation
अद्यापि तत्तत्र तथैव वर्ततां शान्तिं गमिष्यामि यथा त्वमात्थ । इन्द्रप्रस्थे भवतु ममैव राज्यं सुयोधनो यच्छतु भारताग्र्यः॥५-२६-२८॥
Even now, let that arrangement stand there just as it is; I will proceed toward peace as you have said. Let the kingdom at Indraprastha be mine alone; let Suyodhana, foremost among the Bhāratas, grant it.
