कृष्णावेकरथे यत्तावधिज्यं गाण्डिवं धनुः । युगपत्त्रीणि तेजांसि समेतान्यनुशुश्रुमः॥५-५१-११॥
When Kṛṣṇa and Arjuna are on a single chariot, with the Gāṇḍīva bow strung, we have heard that three powers converge simultaneously.
english translation
नैव नोऽस्ति धनुस्तादृङ्न योद्धा न च सारथिः । तच्च मन्दा न जानन्ति दुर्योधनवशानुगाः॥५-५१-१२॥
We have neither such a bow, nor such a warrior, nor such a charioteer; and the dull-minded—those who follow Duryodhana’s control—do not recognize this.
english translation
शेषयेदशनिर्दीप्तो निपतन्मूर्ध्नि संजय । न तु शेषं शराः कुर्युरस्तास्तात किरीटिना॥५-५१-१३॥
A blazing thunderbolt, falling upon the head, might leave something remaining, Sañjaya; but the arrows released by Kirīṭin (Arjuna), dear one, would leave no remainder.
english translation
अपि चास्यन्निवाभाति निघ्नन्निव च फल्गुनः । उद्धरन्निव कायेभ्यः शिरांसि शरवृष्टिभिः॥५-५१-१४॥
Moreover, Phalguna appears as though merely casting arrows and merely striking down foes, as if drawing heads from bodies by showers of arrows.
english translation
अपि बाणमयं तेजः प्रदीप्तमिव सर्वतः । गाण्डीवेद्धं दहेताजौ पुत्राणां मम वाहिनीम्॥५-५१-१५॥
A fiery energy made of arrows, blazing on all sides—released from the Gāṇḍīva—could, in engagement, consume the army of my sons.
