etān-na hantumicchāmi
ghnato-pi madhusūdana
api trailokya-rājyasya
hetoḥ kiṁ nu mahī-kṛte
Meaning :
"O Madhusudhana, even for the throne of three worlds, I don't want to kill them though they should slay me, then how for the earthly lordship."
Comment :
Arjuna calls Krishna as Madhusudhana, meaning, the slayer of a Demon - Madhu and goes on describing that even for the three worlds, he won't kill Kaurava's.
Arjuna has lost all his interest in war for his rightful land and says that even if it means his own death with the hands of Kaurava's, he isn't interested to kill them through any means.
