Lord Krishna will kill me 

Until my death 
I am killing thousands of soldiers on his side 
He is not stopping me 

Krishna is God 
God is omniscient 

There are many ungodly evil spirits in his team 
He does not want to be a sinner바카라¯by바카라¯killing바카라¯them 

I am actually helping him 
to establish justice바카라¯by바카라¯killing those evil ones 

It is an unwritten agreement 
between Krishna and me that no one knows 

Arjuna will kill바카라¯the바카라¯wicked on my side 
I will kill바카라¯the바카라¯evils on Krishna바카라™s side 

Arjuna will not benefit 
Me will not benefit 
Profit will be only for Krishna 

The바카라¯day that Arjuna and I will fight face to face 
Krishna will kill me 
Arjuna will think as if he himself has killed me 

I love my brother Arjuna바카라¯Â 
and have pity on him 

Keeping God as his bodyguard 
Arjuna is fighting with me 
I am fighting with God , not with him 
Not only this, Arjuna does not even know 
that his big brother never wants to be victorious바카라¯by바카라¯killing his younger brother 

Arjuna is just learning and fighting to be first바카라¯Â 
That바카라™s why he will fall down from바카라¯the바카라¯path of heaven 

Without being a hero 
Heroism is not possible 

I am fighting with my sharp weapons 
Krishna바카라™s chariot is coming back at my heroism 
I don바카라™t want such a defeat of God 
I don바카라™t want my younger brother to die 
I can바카라™t neglect myself바카라¯by바카라¯keeping my arms aside in war 
I also can바카라™t betray my best friend Duryodhana 

I am helpless 
Oh God 
Let me die 

Without letting Arjuna to know 
Lord Krishna admits my pray with a bit of smile 
The바카라¯earth has very fast swallowed up바카라¯the바카라¯wheels of my chariot 

Arjuna was waiting for this golden chance 
And Krishna ordered his invisible Sudarshana to accompany with Arjuna바카라™s arrows 
Suddenly I fallen down 

God himself is my rival 
My fortune 
I have died at바카라¯the바카라¯hands of God 

When Lord Parashurama,the바카라¯incarnation of God 
Was cursing me 
You were watching me 
Oh time 
You will be a witness for바카라¯the바카라¯future바카라¯Karna
