Translator:
He saw fathers-in-law and friends in both the armies. The son of Kunti, Arjuna, seeing all those kinsmen thus standing arrayed, spoke sorrowfully, deeply filled with pity.
A Reading - Rantideb
The presence of relatives on both sides shatters the binary logic of 'us versus them.' The conflict is revealed as a tragic, deeply entangled network.
