Karna Kunti Sambad English Translation May 2026

Go now, Mother. Tell your sons nothing. Fight me. I will kill Arjuna or Arjuna will kill me. That is my gift to you: your five sons will live.

(Walking away, sobbing) "I gave birth to a god... and raised a demon's hatred. No. I raised a son with more honor than I deserve." I will kill Arjuna or Arjuna will kill me

(His voice filled with pain and anger) "Mother, you speak of 'rights' now? Where were these rights when I was thrown into the river? Where was your motherhood when I was raised by a charioteer? Now you want me to abandon Duryodhana—the only man who accepted me, who gave me a kingdom, who called me a friend when the world called me lowborn?

(Trembling, with tears in her eyes) "Son of the Suta (charioteer), wait. I have something to tell you. You are not the son of Adhiratha. You are my firstborn, born of Surya, the Sun God. I abandoned you as a baby out of fear of society's shame. The mighty Indra himself is your father's Lord. Vasusena, you are a great hero, born of a god. You are a Kuru prince by blood, not a lowborn."
