Invocation (Mangalacharan)

ॐ नमो व्यासाय, श्री गणेशाय नमः। महाभारत की कथा गाऊँ, हृदय में बसाकर प्रभु का वास। व्यास रचित यह महागाथा, ज्ञान का सागर, सत्य की गाथा।

Transliteration

Om Namo Vyasaya, Shri Ganeshaya Namah. Mahabharata ki katha gaaun, hriday mein basakar Prabhu ka vaas. Vyasa rachit yeh mahagatha, gyan ka sagar, satya ki gatha.

Salutations to Vyasa and Lord Ganesha. I sing the tale of the Mahabharata, keeping the Divine residing in my heart. This great epic composed by Vyasa is an ocean of knowledge and a saga of truth.

The Kuru Dynasty (Kuru Vansh)

Original

हस्तिनापुर की पावन धरती, कुरु वंश का वैभव भारी। धृतराष्ट्र और पांडु के पुत्रों में, द्वंद्व की छाया पड़ी न्यारी। सिंहासन की लालसा में, रिश्तों का बंधन टूटा।

Transliteration

Hastinapur ki paavan dharti, Kuru vansh ka vaibhav bhaari. Dhritarashtra aur Pandu ke putron mein, dwandva ki chhaya padi nyaari. Singhasan ki laalsa mein, rishton ka bandhan toota.

Meaning / Translation

On the holy land of Hastinapur, the glory of the Kuru dynasty was immense. Upon the sons of Dhritarashtra and Pandu, a strange shadow of conflict fell. In the greed for the throne, the bonds of relationships were broken.

The Conflict (Dharma vs Adharma)

Original

शकुनि की चालें और दुर्योधन का अहंकार, पांडवों के जीवन में लाया अंधकार। द्रौपदी का अपमान और धर्म का संकट, अधर्म का बढ़ता गया रक्त।

Transliteration

Shakuni ki chaalein aur Duryodhan ka ahankar, Pandavon ke jeevan mein laya andhkar. Draupadi ka apmaan aur dharma ka sankat, adharma ka badhta gaya rakt.

Meaning / Translation

Shakuni's schemes and Duryodhana's ego brought darkness into the lives of the Pandavas. The humiliation of Draupadi and the crisis of Dharma saw the rise of unrighteousness and bloodshed.

The Divine Song (Bhagavad Gita)

Original

कुरुक्षेत्र के रण में जब अर्जुन व्याकुल हुआ, कृष्ण ने तब मोह का जाल बुना। पार्थ को दिया गीता का दिव्य ज्ञान, कर्मयोग का दिया महान वरदान।

Transliteration

Kurukshetra ke ran mein jab Arjun vyakul hua, Krishna ne tab moh ka jaal buna. Parth ko diya Gita ka divya gyan, Karmayoga ka diya mahan vardaan.

Meaning / Translation

When Arjuna became distressed in the battlefield of Kurukshetra, Krishna unraveled the web of delusion. He gave the divine knowledge of the Gita to Parth (Arjuna), granting the great boon of Karma Yoga.

The Final War and Victory

Original

भीषण युद्ध और महानायक का बलिदान, धर्म की विजय हुई महान। अधर्म का नाश और सत्य का उदय, व्यास की वाणी में जीवन का विजय।

Transliteration

Bhishan yuddh aur mahanaayak ka balidan, Dharma ki vijay hui mahan. Adharma ka naash aur satya ka uday, Vyasa ki vaani mein jeevan ka vijay.

Meaning / Translation

A fierce war and the sacrifice of great heroes, the victory of Dharma was magnificent. The destruction of unrighteousness and the rise of truth; in the words of Vyasa lies the victory of life.
