वितर्कयन्तं तु नरर्षभस् तदा; युधिष्ठिरो ऽभ्येत्य विराटम् अब्रवीत् ॥
सम्राड् विजानात्व् इह जीवितार्थिनं; विनष्टसर्वस्वम् उपागतं द्विजम् ॥
इहाहम् इच्छामि तवानघान्तिके; वस्तुं यथा कामचरस् तथा विभो ॥
तम् अब्रवीत् स्वागतम् इत्य् अनन्तरं; राजा प्रहृष्टः प्रतिसंगृहाण च ॥
कामेन ताताभिवदाम्य् अहं त्वां; कस्यासि राज्ञो विषयाद् इहागतः ॥
गोत्रं च नामापि च शंस तत्त्वतः; किं चापि शिल्पं तव विद्यते कृतम् ॥
युधिष्ठिर उवाच
युधिष्ठिरस्यासम् अहं पुरा सखा; वैयाघ्रपद्यः पुनर् अस्मि ब्राह्मणः ॥
अक्षान् प्रवप्तुं कुशलो ऽस्मि देविता; कङ्केति नाम्नास्मि विराट विश्रुतः ॥
vitarkayantaṃ tu nararṣabhas tadā; yudhiṣṭhiro 'bhyetya virāṭam abravīt ||
samrāḍ vijānātv iha jīvitārthinaṃ; vinaṣṭasarvasvam upāgataṃ dvijam ||
ihāham icchāmi tavānaghāntike; vastuṃ yathā kāmacaras tathā vibho ||
tam abravīt svāgatam ity anantaraṃ; rājā prahṛṣṭaḥ pratisaṃgṛhāṇa ca ||
kāmena tātābhivadāmy ahaṃ tvāṃ; kasyāsi rājño viṣayād ihāgataḥ ||
gotraṃ ca nāmāpi ca śaṃsa tattvataḥ; kiṃ cāpi śilpaṃ tava vidyate kṛtam ||
yudhiṣṭhira uvāca
yudhiṣṭhirasyāsam ahaṃ purā sakhā; vaiyāghrapadyaḥ punar asmi brāhmaṇaḥ ||
akṣān pravaptuṃ kuśalo 'smi devitā; kaṅketi nāmnāsmi virāṭa viśrutaḥ ||
While the bull among men was still pondering thus, Yudhishthira came forward and said to Virata: "Let the sovereign know that here has come a brahmin who has lost all his wealth and now seeks his livelihood. I wish to dwell here near you, sinless one, moving as freely as I please, O lord." The king replied to him joyfully at once: "Welcome -- accept my greeting. Tell me, dear one, from what king's realm and what country have you come here? Declare truly your lineage and your name, and what skill you possess and practice." Yudhishthira said: "I was once a friend of Yudhishthira; now I am a brahmin of the Vaiyaghrapadya line. I am skilled at casting dice, I delight in play, and I am known by the name Kanka, O Virata."

Yudhishthira speaks the truth in a way that keeps it hidden. He truly was close to Yudhishthira, because he is Yudhishthira; the deception here lies not in the words themselves but in the deliberately incomplete disclosure.
