Sloka:

Listening to the words of husband, the one who eliminates the worries of the worried and kind hearted one, Draupadi spoke these words

 

Hey husband, If I think, what could be more-

sad than this, today, here, for me?

 

Hey peace-minded, and the shine of Shantanu’s Lineage,

what is not known to you, hey the ocean of mercy!

 

All those can be taken in, even then,

there is another concern that keeps growing, please hear that.

 

Due to paucity of food, all from child to the old and-

the Brahmins (who accompanied us) are in the forest

Would they bear this, would they walk long? 

Would they be able to bare to the heat,  seeing this! would you be able to bear ?
