Bhagavad Gita · 2.8

न हि प्रपश्यामि ममापनुद्याद्यच्छोकमुच्छोषणमिन्द्रियाणाम्।अवाप्य भूमावसपत्नमृद्धंराज्यं सुराणामपि चाधिपत्यम्॥

na hi prapaśhyāmi mamāpanudyād yach chhokam uchchhoṣhaṇam indriyāṇām avāpya bhūmāv asapatnam ṛddhaṁ rājyaṁ surāṇām api chādhipatyam

I do not see what could dispel this grief that dries up my senses, even if I were to obtain unrivaled and prosperous kingdom on earth or even lordship over the gods.
