Sanskrit Original
भरतानां समुच्छेदो व्यक्तं मद्भाग्यसंक्षयात्। व्यथितां मां च सम्प्रेक्ष्य पितृवंशं च पीडितम्॥ भीष्मो बुद्धिमदान्मह्यं कुलस्यास्य विवृद्धये। सा च बुद्धिस्त्वय्यधीना पुत्रि प्रापय मां तथा॥ नष्टं च भारतं वंशं पुनरेव समुद्धर। पुत्रं जनय सुश्रोणि देवराजसमप्रभम्॥ स हि राज्यधुरं गुर्वीमुद्वक्ष्यति कुलस्य नः।
On account of my bad fate, the Bharata dynasty has become extinct. Seeing me grieved and the extinction of his paternal line. The wise Bhishma, with the desire of perpetuating our race has made to me a suggestion. But, O daughter, its accomplishment depends on you. Accomplish it and restore the lost line of the Bharatas. O beautiful girl, bring forth a son as effulgent as the king of the celestials. He will bear the heavy burden of our this hereditary kingdom.
