Shlok Meaning

Hindi Translation

हम यह भी नहीं जानते कि हमलोगों के लिये युद्ध करना और न करना इन दोनों में से कौन सा अत्यन्त श्रेष्ठ है और हमें इसका भी पता नहीं है कि हम उन्हें जीतेंगे अथवा वे हमें जीतेंगे। जिनको मारकर हम जीना भी नहीं चाहते वे ही धृतराष्ट्रके सम्बन्धी हमारे सामने खड़े हैं।

English Translation

We do not even know which result of this war is preferable for us—conquering them or being conquered by them. Even after killing them we will not desire to live. Yet they have taken the side of Dhritarasthra, and now stand before us on the battlefield.
