Like a weary swimmer in the water, as one who has reached the shore — having seen him, the tiger-among-men, Yuyudhana [Satyaki] revived. Having looked at him, approaching, Keshava said to Arjuna: "There comes Shaineya, your follower, Partha. He is both disciple and friend of yours, of true valor; having reduced all warriors to nothing, the bull-among-men prevailed. He, having wrought terrible havoc among the warriors of the Kauravas, dearer to you than life, o Diademed one, comes — Satyaki."

Krishna announces Satyaki's arrival as a joy: "your disciple and friend, dearer than life." It is significant that the exhausted fighter is likened to a swimmer who has touched the shore: meeting with a friend is the shore after the abyss. The verse teaches that friendship is a haven amid war; and he who has broken through an ocean of foes to reach his friend finds in him not merely aid, but the very ground on which to draw breath.
