3.248.1
शत्रुभिर्जितबद्धस् पाण्डवैश्च महात्मभिः ।
मोक्षितस्य युधा पश्चान्मानिनः सुदुरात्मनः ॥ ३.२४८.१ ॥
Of him who was conquered and bound by enemies, and afterwards released in battle by the great-souled Pāṇḍavas — that proud and wicked-minded man.
3.248.2
कत्थनस्यावलिप्तस्य गर्वितस् च नित्यशः ।
सदा च पौरुषौदार्यैः पाण्डवानवमन्यतः ॥ ३.२४८.२ ॥
Of the ever-boastful, arrogant and conceited one, who always despised the Pāṇḍavas through his manliness and generosity.
3.248.3
दुर्योधनस् पापस्य नित्याहंकारवादिनः ।
प्रवेशो हास्तिनपुरे दुष्करः प्रतिभाति मे ॥ ३.२४८.३ ॥
To me it seems difficult for the sinful Duryodhana, who constantly speaks in the language of his own ego, to enter Hāstinapura.
3.248.4
तस्य लज्जानवितस्यैव शोकव्याकुलचेतसः ।

3.248.5
धर्मराजनिसृष्स्तु धार्तराष्ट्रः सुयोधनः ।
लज्जयाऽधोमुखः सीदन्नुपासर्पत्सुदुःखितः ॥ ३.२४८.५ ॥
But Suyodhana, son of Dhṛtarāṣṭra, released by the king of dharma, his face bowed down in shame, sinking and deeply grieved, went near.
3.248.6
स्वपुरं प्रययौ राजा चतुरङ्गबलानुगः ।
शोकोदहतया बुद्ध्या चिन्तयानः पराभवम् ॥ ३.२४८.६ ॥
The king went to his own city, followed by his fourfold army, his mind scorched by the fire of grief, brooding over his defeat.
3.248.7
विमुच्य पथि यानानि देशे सुयवसोदके ।
सन्निविष्टः शुभे रम्ये भूमिभागे यथेप्सितम्।
हस्त्यश्वरथपादातं यथास्थानं न्यवेशयत् ॥ ३.२४८.७ ॥
Having unyoked the vehicles on the road, he encamped at will on a pleasant, delightful stretch of ground with good fodder and water, and posted the elephants, horses, chariots and foot soldiers each in its place.
3.248.8
अथोपविष्टं राजानं पर्यङ्के ज्वलनप्रभे ।
उपप्लुतं यथा सोमं राहुणा रात्रिसंक्षये।
उपागम्याब्रवीत्कर्णो दुर्योधनमिदं तदा ॥ ३.२४८.८ ॥
Then Karṇa approached the king, who was seated on a couch blazing like fire and afflicted, like the moon seized by Rāhu at the close of night, and spoke this to Duryodhana.
3.248.9
दिष्ट्या जीवसि गान्धारे दिष्ठ्या नः संगमः पुनः ।
दिष्ट्या त्वया जिताश्चैव गन्धर्वाः कामरूपिणः ॥ ३.२४८.९ ॥
Fortunately you are alive, O son of Gāndhārī; fortunately we have met again; and fortunately you have conquered the Gandharvas, who take any form at will.

दिष्ट्या समग्रान्पश्यामि भ्रातॄस्ते कुरुनन्दन ।
विजिगीषून्रणे युक्तान्निर्जितारीन्महारथान् ॥ ३.२४८.१० ॥
O joy of the Kurus, fortunately I see all your brothers together, great charioteers eager to conquer in battle, ready, having vanquished their enemies.
3.248.11
अहं त्वभिद्रुतः सर्वैर्गन्धर्वैः पश्यतस्व ।
नाशक्नुवं स्थापयितुं दीर्यमाणां च वाहिनीम्।
शरक्षताङ्गश्च भृशं व्यपयातोऽभिपीडितः ॥ ३.२४८.११ ॥
But all the Gandharvas attacked me, and before your very eyes I could not hold back the scattering army; my body wounded by arrows, greatly tormented, I withdrew.
3.248.12
इदं त्वत्यद्भुतं मन्ये यद्युष्मानिह भारत ।
अरिष्टानक्षसांश्चापि सदारबलवाहनान्।
विमुक्तान्संप्रपश्यामि युद्धात्तस्मादमानुषात् ॥ ३.२४८.१२ ॥
Bhārata, I think it is most wonderful that I see you here, and the Ariṣṭas and Akṣasas as well, freed with your wives, armies and vehicles from that superhuman battle.
3.248.13
नैतस्य कर्ता लोकेऽस्मिन्पुमान्विद्यति भारत ।
यत्कृतं ते महाराज सह भ्रातृभिराहवे ॥ ३.२४८.१३ ॥
Bhārata, there is no man in this world who could do this; this is what you, great king, did in battle together with your brothers.

उवाचावाक्शिरा राजन्बाष्पगद्गदया गिरा ॥ ३.२४८.१४ ॥
Thus addressed by Karṇa, King Duryodhana, his head bowed, spoke, his voice choked with tears.
