Whatever I have presumptuously said from carelessness or love, addressing Thee as O Krishna! O Yadava! O Friend! regarding Thee merely as a friend, unknowing of this, Thy greatness.

Whatever I said rashly, thinking of you as a friend, calling you Krishna, Yadava, friend, not knowing this greatness of yours, out of carelessness or even out of affection,

Arjuna's praise turns into apology, and the sentence carries into the next verse. He remembers how he has spoken to Krishna over the years, casually and boldly, calling him Krishna, Yadava, friend, as one would address a companion. He did this without knowing the greatness he now sees, out of carelessness or simply out of love. The verse is deeply human. The vision has not erased the friendship; it has made Arjuna aware of how much he took it for granted. His regret is mixed with tenderness, since the familiarity was itself born of affection.
