Bhagavad Gita 1.33 — For whom we wanted it

येषामर्थे काङ्क्षितं नो राज्यं भोगाः सुखानि च। त इमेऽवस्थिता युद्धे प्राणांस्त्यक्त्वा धनानि च ॥

yeṣāmarthe kāṅkṣitaṃ no rājyaṃ bhogāḥ sukhāni ca | ta ime'vasthitā yuddhe prāṇāṃstyaktvā dhanāni ca ||

Meaning

The very people for whose sake we wanted kingdom, pleasures and comforts are standing here in battle, ready to give up life and wealth.
