salva -- of Salva; anika-pa -- of the leaders of the army; sastra -- of weapons; oghaih -- by floods; vrishni-virah -- the heroes of the Vrishni clan; bhrisa -- extremely; arditah -- pained; na tatyajuh -- they did not abandon; ranam -- the places on the battlefield; svam svam -- each their own; loka -- the worlds; dvaya -- two; jigishavah -- wishing to conquer.
Because the heroes of the Vrishni clan were eager for victory in this world and the next, they did not abandon their assigned posts on the battlefield, even though the downpour of weapons hurled by Salva's commanders tormented them.
Srila Prabhupada writes, "The heroes of the Yadu dynasty were determined to either die on the battlefield or gain victory. They were confident of the fact that if they would die in the fighting they would attain a heavenly planet, and if they would come out victorious they would enjoy the world."
