3.90.1
धनंजयेन चाप्युक्तं यत्तच्छृणु युधिष्ठिर ।
युधिष्ठिरं भ्रातरं मे योजयेर्धर्म्यया धिया ॥ ३.९०.१ ॥
Listen also to what Dhanaṃjaya said, O Yudhiṣṭhira: join my brother Yudhiṣṭhira to it with a righteous intention.
3.90.2
त्वं हि धर्मान्परान्वेत्थ तपांसि च तपोधन ।
श्रीमतां चापि जानासि धर्मं राज्ञां सनातनम् ॥ ३.९०.२ ॥
You know the highest duties and the austerities, O wealth of austerity; and you also know the eternal duty of glorious kings.
3.90.3
स भवान्परमं वेद रपावनं पुरुषं प्रति ।
तेन संयोजयेथास्त्वं तीर्थपुण्येन पाण्डवान् ॥ ३.९०.३ ॥
You know that supreme, purifying Person; through him, by the merit of the sacred place, join the Pāṇḍavas.
3.90.4
यथा तीर्थानि गच्छेत गाश्च दद्यात्स पार्थिवः ।
तथा सर्वात्मना कार्यमिति मामर्जुनोऽब्रवीत् ॥ ३.९०.४ ॥
As that king should go to the sacred places and give cows, so it must be done with the whole self — thus Arjuna said to me.
3.90.5
भवता चानुगुप्तोऽसौ चरेत्तीर्थानि सर्वशः ।
रक्षोभ्यो रक्षितव्यश्च दुर्गेषु विषमेषु च ॥ ३.९०.५ ॥
Protected by you, let him wander to the sacred places everywhere; and he must be guarded from the demons, in fortresses and in rough places.
3.90.6
दधीच इव देवेन्द्रं यथा चाप्यङ्गिरा रविम् ।
तथा रक्षस्व कौन्तेयान्राक्षसेभ्यो द्विजोत्तम ॥ ३.९०.६ ॥
As Dadhīca protected Indra, lord of gods, and Aṅgiras protected the sun, so protect the sons of Kuntī from the demons, O best of the twice-born.
3.90.7
यातुधाना हि बहवो राक्षसाः पर्वतोपमाः ।
त्वयाऽभिगुप्तान्कौन्तेयान्न विवर्तेयुरन्तिकम् ॥ ३.९०.७ ॥
Indeed there are many yātudhānas and rākṣasas, like mountains. Guarded by you, the sons of Kuntī they will not approach.
3.90.8
सोऽहमिन्द्रस्य वचनान्नियोगादर्जुनस्य च ।
रक्षमाणो भयेभ्यस्त्वां चरिष्यामि त्वा सह ॥ ३.९०.८ ॥
By the word of Indra and by Arjuna's command, protecting you from dangers, I shall go about with you.
3.90.9
द्विस्तीर्थानि मया पूर्वं दृष्टानि कुरुनन्दन ।
इदं तृतीयं द्रक्ष्यामि तान्येव भवता सह ॥ ३.९०.९ ॥
O joy of the Kurus, twice before I have seen these holy places; this third time I shall see those very places with you.
3.90.10
इयं राजर्षिभिर्याता पुण्यकृद्भिर्युधिष्ठिर ।
मन्वादिभिर्महाराज तीर्थयात्रा भयापहा ॥ ३.९०.१० ॥
O Yudhiṣṭhira, this pilgrimage was made by meritorious royal sages and by Manu and others; it removes fear.
3.90.11
नानृजुर्नाकृतात्मा च नाविद्यो न च पापकृत् ।
स्नाति तीर्थेषु कौरव्य न च वक्रमतिर्नरः ॥ ३.९०.११ ॥
O Kaurava, the man who is not upright, whose self is unrefined, who is ignorant, a sinner, and crooked-minded, does not bathe in the holy places.
3.90.12
त्वं तु धर्ममतिर्नित्यं धर्मज्ञः सत्यसंगरः ।
विमुक्तः सर्वपापेभ्यो भूय एव भविष्यसि ॥ ३.९०.१२ ॥
But you are always intent on dharma, a knower of dharma, true to your vows; freed from all sins, you will become purer still.
3.90.13
यथा भगीरथो राजा राजानश्च गयादयः ।
यथा ययातिः कौन्तेय तथा त्वमपि पाण्डव ॥ ३.९०.१३ ॥
As King Bhagīratha and the kings Gaya and others did, as Yayāti did, so also you, son of Kuntī, Pāṇḍava.
3.90.14
न हर्षात्संप्रपश्यामि वाक्यस्यास्योत्तरं क्वचित् ।
यन्मां स्मरति देवेशः किं नामाभ्यधिकं ततः ॥ ३.९०.१४ ॥
Out of joy I cannot see any reply to these words; that the lord of the gods remembers me—what could be greater than that?
3.90.15
भवता संगमो यस् भ्राता चैव धनंजयः ।
वासवः स्मरते यस् को नामाभ्यधिकस्ततः ॥ ३.९०.१५ ॥
Meeting you, and my brother Dhanaṃjaya, and Vāsava who remembers—what could be greater than this?
3.90.16
यच्च मां भगवानाह तीर्थानां गमनं प्रति ।
धौम्यस्य वचनादेषा बुद्धिः पूर्वं कृतैव मे ॥ ३.९०.१६ ॥
And as the venerable one told me about going to the holy places, this resolve was already made by me earlier, at the word of Dhaumya.
3.90.17
तद्यदा मन्यसे ब्रह्मन्गमनं तीर्तदर्शने ।
तदैव गन्तास्मि तीर्तान्येष मे निश्चयः परः ॥ ३.९०.१७ ॥
So, O brahmin, when you think it is time to go and see the holy places, then indeed I shall go to the holy places; this is my supreme resolve.
3.90.18
गमने कृतबुद्धिं तं पाण्डवं लोमशोऽब्रवीत् ।
लघुर्भव महाराज लघुः स्वैरं गमिष्यसि ॥ ३.९०.१८ ॥
To that Pāṇḍava, resolved on going, Lomaśa said: Be light, great king; you will go lightly, at will.
3.90.19
भिक्षाभुजो निवर्तन्तां ब्राह्मणा यतयश्च ये ॥ ३.९०.१९ ॥
Let the brahmins who live on alms, and the ascetics, return.
3.90.20
क्षुत्तृडध्वश्रमायासशीतार्तिमसहिष्णवः ।
ते सर्वे विनिवर्तन्तां ये च मृष्टभुजो द्विजाः ॥ ३.९०.२० ॥
Let all who cannot bear hunger, thirst, the toil of the road, weariness, cold and pain turn back, and let the twice-born who eat fine food turn back as well.
3.90.21
पक्वान्नलेह्यपानानां मांसानां च विकल्पकाः ।
तेऽपि सर्वे निवर्तन्तां ये च सूदानुयायिनः।
मया यथोचिताऽऽजीव्यौः संविभक्ताश्च वृत्तिभिः ॥ ३.९०.२१ ॥
Let those who prepare cooked food, lickable dishes, drinks and meats turn back, and those who follow the cooks as well; and let those turn back who were provided for by me with livelihoods and wages suited to each.
3.90.22
ये चाप्यनुगताः पौरा राजभक्तिपुरःसराः ।
धृतराष्ट्रं महाराजमभिगच्छन्तु ते च वै। ॥ ३.९०.२२ ॥
And let those citizens who have followed us, led by loyalty to the king, go to the great king Dhṛtarāṣṭra.
3.90.23
स दास्यति यथाकालमुचिता यस्य या भृतिः ।
स चेद्यथोचितां वृत्तिं न दद्यान्मनुजेश्वरः।
अस्मत्प्रियहितार्थायपाञ्चाल्यो वः प्रदास्यति ॥ ३.९०.२३ ॥
He will give to each, in due time, the wage that is proper for him. And if that lord of men does not give a livelihood as is fitting, then the Pāñcāla king will give it to you for the sake of what is dear and beneficial to us.
3.90.24
ततो भूयिष्ठशः पौरा गुरौ भारे समाहिते ।
विप्राश्च यतयो मुख्या जग्मुर्नागपुरं प्रति ॥ ३.९०.२४ ॥
Then, for the most part, the citizens and the chief brahmins and ascetics, once the heavy burden had been set down, went toward the city of Hastinapura.
3.90.25
तान्सर्वान्धर्मराजस्य प्रेम्णा राजाऽम्बिकासुतः ।
प्रतिजग्राह विधिवद्धनैश्च समतर्पयत् ॥ ३.९०.२५ ॥
Out of affection for Yudhiṣṭhira, the king, Ambikā's son, received all of them according to rule and fully satisfied them with wealth.
3.90.26
ततः कुन्तीसुतो राजा लघुभिर्ब्राह्मणैः सह ।
लोमशेन च सुप्रीतस्त्रिरात्रं काम्यकेऽवसत् ॥ ३.९०.२६ ॥
Then the king, Kuntī's son, together with the lesser brahmins and greatly pleased with Lomaśa, stayed three nights in the Kāmyaka forest.
