VANA PARVA
"A vessel containing the Sami sticks
used to kindle fire was hung in a tree.
King, a big stag has taken it and sped
away. Tracking it, king (and) you Pandavas,
bring it back (to me ).
187
ब्राह्मणार्थे यतन्तस्ते शीघ्रमन्वगमन्मृगम् ।
अपश्यन्तो मृगं श्रान्ता दुःखं प्राप्ता मनस्विनः ।
शीतलच्छायमागम्य न्यग्रोधं समुपाविशन् ॥
Making effort in the task of the Brahmin,
the Pandavas quickly went after the deer.
Not finding it, the resolute Pandavas, tired
and sad, came to a Banyan tree of cool
shade and sat down.
ततो युधिष्ठिरो राजा नकुलं वाक्यमब्रवीत् ।
'पानीयमन्तिके पश्य तूणैः पानीयमानय ' ॥
Then king Yudhisthira told Nakula : See
if there is water near-by and bring (some)
water in the quivers."
नकुलः प्राद्रवद्यत्र पानीयं चान्वपद्यत ।
पातुकामस्ततो वाचमन्तरिक्षात्स शुश्रुवे ॥
