ADI PARVA
तयोः पाणी गृहीत्वा तु रूपयौवनदर्पितः ।
ताभ्यां सह समास्सप्त विहरन्पृथिवीपतिः ।
विचित्रवीर्यस्तरुणो यक्ष्मणा समगृह्यत ॥
Marrying them and enjoying them for
seven years, the youthful king Vichitra-
virya, proud of his beauty and youth,
was seized by consumption.
जगामास्तमिवादित्यः कौरव्यो यमसादनम् ॥
And like the sun setting, that descendant
of Kuru passed into the abode of Death.
ततस्सत्यवती दीना गाङ्गेयं वाक्यमब्रवीत् ।
'जानामि ते स्थितिं सत्ये परां सत्यपराक्रम ।
यथा ते कुलतन्तुश्च धर्मश्च न पराभवेत् ।
सुहृदश्च प्रहृष्येरंस्तथा कुरु परन्तप ॥
Then, the dejected Satyavati spoke to
Bhishma : "I know - your great devotion
to Truth, you
hero of Truth;
valorous Bhishma! act in such a manner
that neither the continuity of your family
nor your Dharma will suffer and that
friends, too, will rejoice. "
