Arjuna said Seeing these, my kinsmen, O krishna, arrayed, eager to fight.

Arjuna said: Krishna, seeing these my own people standing here, eager to fight,

Arjuna's speech of despair begins with a single phrase: seeing my own people gathered and eager to fight. The word svajana, one's own people, carries the whole weight of what he has just seen. A moment ago they were the army of an evil-minded king; now they are his kin. The sentence is left incomplete and runs into the following verses, where Arjuna describes what this sight is doing to his body and mind. The structure itself mirrors a man whose composure is breaking.
