शमं चेत् ते करिष्यन्ति ततो ऽनन्तं यशो मम ॥
भवतां च कृतः कामस् तेषां च श्रेय उत्तमम् ॥
ते चेद् अभिनिवेक्ष्यन्ति नाभ्युपैष्यन्ति मे वचः ॥
कुरवो युद्धम् एवात्र रौद्रं कर्म भविष्यति ॥
अस्मिन् युद्धे भीमसेन त्वयि भारः समाहितः ॥
धूर् अर्जुनेन धार्या स्याद् वोढव्य इतरो जनः ॥
अहं हि यन्ता बीभत्सोर् भविता संयुगे सति ॥
धनंजयस्यैष कामो न हि युद्धं न कामये ॥
तस्माद् आशङ्कमानो ऽहं वृकोदर मतिं तव ॥
तुदन्न् अक्लीबया वाचा तेजस् ते समदीपयम् ॥
śamaṃ cet te kariṣyanti tato 'nantaṃ yaśo mama ||
bhavatāṃ ca kṛtaḥ kāmas teṣāṃ ca śreya uttamam ||
te ced abhinivekṣyanti nābhyupaiṣyanti me vacaḥ ||
kuravo yuddham evātra raudraṃ karma bhaviṣyati ||
asmin yuddhe bhīmasena tvayi bhāraḥ samāhitaḥ ||
dhūr arjunena dhāryā syād voḍhavya itaro janaḥ ||
ahaṃ hi yantā bībhatsor bhavitā saṃyuge sati ||
dhanaṃjayasyaiṣa kāmo na hi yuddhaṃ na kāmaye ||
tasmād āśaṅkamāno 'haṃ vṛkodara matiṃ tava ||
tudann aklībayā vācā tejas te samadīpayam ||
That you, O Bhimasena, should utter words so unexpected from you is as strange as the shifting of a hill. Remembering your own deeds, and the race into which you were born, rise up, O Bharata, do not give way to grief, O hero, and be firm. Such languor, O conqueror of foes, is unworthy of you, for a kshatriya never delights in what he has not won through valor.'

This passage (5.75.16-20) develops the central theme of the Udyoga-parva: the effort toward peace is already underway against the backdrop of an unavoidable war. Key themes: war. Here dharma is revealed through speech, the choice of embassy, faithfulness to one's word, and the responsibility of kings for the consequences of their decisions.
