SANKARASRAMAM

Chapter 1: Observing the Armies on the Battlefield of Kurukshetra
Verse: 36
papam evasrayed asman
hatvaitan atatayinah
tasman narha vayam hantum
dhartarashtran sa-bandhavan
sva-janam hi katham hatva
sukhinah syama madhava

Translation:
Sin will overcome us if we slay such aggressors. Therefore it is not proper for us to kill the sons of Dhritarashtra and our friends. What should we gain, O Krishna, husband of the goddess of fortune, and how could we be happy by killing our own kinsmen?
