"I, with resolve as my companion, bearing this burden with my mind — if I roar, o brahmin, what of yours is lost thereby? In vain the brave do not roar, like water-laden clouds; having known their own capacity, then the wise roar. Here I am today, ready for battle, and I dare to swiftly conquer the united Krishna and Pandava — therefore I roar, Gautama. Behold the fruit of this roar of mine, o brahmin, together with your retinue — when I have slain the sons of Pandu in battle, together with Krishna and the Satvatas."

Karna defends the meaning of his "roar": the wise roar only having known their own strength, like rain-laden (not empty) clouds. Telling is "vyavasayadvitiyah" — resolve as sole companion: he rests upon his will. The verse teaches that a vow born of clear knowledge of one's own strength and firm resolve differs from empty boasting; and a word backed by readiness to fulfill it is no "waterless cloud," but one promising rain.
