देवनागरी

कथं वेश्मसु गुप्तेषु स्वास्तीर्णशयनोचिता ॥
शेते निपतिता भूमौ सुखार्हा वरवर्णिनी ॥
सुकुमारौ कथं पादौ मुखं च कमलप्रभम् ॥
मत्कृते ऽद्य वरार्हायाः श्यामतां समुपागतम् ॥
किम् इदं द्यूतकामेन मया कृतम् अबुद्धिना ॥
आदाय कृष्णां चरता वने मृगगणायुते ॥
सुखं प्राप्स्यति पाञ्चाली पाण्डवान् प्राप्य वै पतीन् ॥
इति द्रुपदराजेन पित्रा दत्तायतेक्षणा ॥
तत् सर्वम् अनवाप्यैव श्रमशोकाद् धि कर्शिता ॥
शेते निपतिता भूमौ पापस्य मम कर्मभिः ॥
तथा लालप्यमाने तु धर्मराजे युधिष्ठिरे ॥
धौम्यप्रभृतयः सर्वे तत्राजग्मुर् द्विजोत्तमाः ॥
ते समाश्वासयाम् आसुर् आशीर्भिश् चाप्य् अपूजयन् ॥
रक्षोघ्नांश् च तथा मन्त्राञ् जेपुश् चक्रुश् च ते क्रियाः ॥
पठ्यमानेषु मन्त्रेषु शान्त्यर्थं परमर्षिभिः ॥
स्पृश्यमाना करैः शीतैः पाण्डवैश् च मुहुर् मुहुः ॥
सेव्यमाना च शीतेन जलमिश्रेण वायुना ॥
पाञ्चाली सुखम् आसाद्य लेभे चेतः शनैः शनैः ॥
परिगृह्य च तां दीनां कृष्णाम् अजिनसंस्तरे ॥
तदा विश्रामयाम् आसुर् लब्धसंज्ञां तपस्विनीम् ॥
तस्या यमौ रक्ततलौ पादौ पूजितलक्षणौ ॥
कराभ्यां किणजाताभ्यां शनकैः संववाहतुः ॥
पर्याश्वासयद् अप्य् एनां धर्मराजो युधिष्ठिरः ॥
उवाच च कुरुश्रेष्ठो भीमसेनम् इदं वचः ॥
बहवः पर्वता भीम विषमा हिमदुर्गमाः ॥
तेषु कृष्णा महाबाहो कथं नु विचरिष्यति ॥

अनुवाद

'How is it that she who deserves guarded chambers and a well-spread bed now lies fallen upon the ground, this woman of beautiful complexion, deserving of happiness? How have the tender feet and lotus-bright face of this most worthy woman turned dark today because of me? What have I, senseless, done out of love for dicing, taking Krishna and wandering through a forest full of beasts? "Panchali will attain happiness, gaining the Pandavas as husbands" -- with this thought her father, King Drupada, gave us the long-eyed one. But she has attained none of this; worn out by hardship and grief, she lies on the ground because of my sinful deeds.' As Dharmaraja Yudhishthira lamented thus, Dhaumya and all the best of the twice-born arrived there. They comforted her, honored her with blessings, recited mantras that destroy rakshasas, and performed rites. As the great sages recited mantras for her peace, and the Pandavas again and again touched her with cool hands, and a cool breeze mingled with moisture blew upon her, Panchali, finding relief, gradually regained her senses. Then they laid poor Krishna, the ascetic woman, to rest upon a bed of deerskin, once she had come to herself. The two sons of Madri, with their calloused hands, slowly massaged her red, auspiciously marked feet. Dharmaraja Yudhishthira also comforted her and said this to Bhimasena: "Bhima, there are many mountains ahead, rugged, snowy, and hard to cross. How, then, will Krishna, mighty-armed one, make her way through them?"'

भाष्य

Yudhishthira does not excuse himself: he names his own action as the root of the misfortune. Such honesty matters, because care without an acknowledgment of guilt easily becomes shallow.
