नाहम् अतो निर् अया दुर्गहैतत् तिरश्चता पार्श्वान् निर् गमाणि । बहूनि मे अकृता कर्त्वानि युध्यै त्वेन सं त्वेन पृच्छै ॥
nāham ato nir ayā durgahaitat tiraścatā pārśvān nir gamāṇi | bahūni me akṛtā kartvāni yudhyai tvena saṃ tvena pṛcchai ||
Devanagari rendered by HREEM from the edition's roman (IAST) text; the IAST is the edition's own.
Not this way go I forth: hard is the passage. Forth from the side obliquely will I issue. Much that is yet undone must I accomplish; one must I combat and the other question.
Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
