Srimad-Bhagavatam: Canto 10 - Chapter 1 - Verse 16


Sanskrit:

यास्यन् राजानमभ्येत्य विषमं पुत्रलालसम् ।अवदत् सुहृदां मध्ये बन्धुभि: सौहृदोदितम् ॥ १६ ॥

ITRANS:

yāsyan rājānam abhyetyaviṣamaṁ putra-lālasamavadat suhṛdāṁ madhyebandhubhiḥ sauhṛdoditam

Translation:

The ardent affection King Dhṛtarāṣṭra felt for his sons had made him act unjustly toward the Pāṇḍavas. Just before leaving, Akrūra approached the King, who was seated among his friends and supporters, and related to him the message that his relatives — Lord Kṛṣṇa and Lord Balarāma — had sent out of friendship.
