विदीर्यते मे हृदयं भीमवाक्शल्यपीडितम् । योऽयमद्य महाबाहुर्धर्मं समनुपश्यति॥५-८०-४१॥

My heart is torn, pained by the wound of Bhīma’s words—this mighty-armed one who today is contemplating dharma.

english translation

इत्युक्त्वा बाष्पसन्नेन कण्ठेनायतलोचना । रुरोद कृष्णा सोत्कम्पं सस्वरं बाष्पगद्गदम्॥५-८०-४२॥

Having spoken thus, Kṛṣṇā, wide-eyed, began to weep; her throat was choked with tears, her voice trembling and broken by sobs.

english translation

स्तनौ पीनायतश्रोणी सहितावभिवर्षती । द्रवीभूतमिवात्युष्णमुत्सृजद्वारि नेत्रजम्॥५-८०-४३॥

With her full breasts and broad hips trembling together, she wept without cease, pouring from her eyes tears like water liquefied by searing heat.

english translation

तामुवाच महाबाहुः केशवः परिसान्त्वयन् । अचिराद्द्रक्ष्यसे कृष्णे रुदतीर्भरतस्त्रियः॥५-८०-४४॥

Then strong-armed Keśava spoke to her in consolation: “Soon, O Kṛṣṇe, you will behold the women of Bharata’s line weeping.”

english translation

एवं ता भीरु रोत्स्यन्ति निहतज्ञातिबान्धवाः । हतमित्रा हतबला येषां क्रुद्धासि भामिनि॥५-८०-४५॥

“So, O timid one, those women will weep—bereft of kinsmen and kin, stripped of allies and strength—those against whom you are wrathful, O proud lady.”
