7.27
इच्छाद्वेषसमुत्थेन द्वन्द्वमोहेन भारत ।
सर्वभूतानि सम्मोहं सर्गे यान्ति परन्तप ॥
icchādveṣasamutthena dvandvamohena bhārata
sarvabhūtāni sammohaṃ sarge yānti parantapa
Kṛṣṇa (कृष्ण) is speaking, to Arjuna (अर्जुन), called Bhārata (भारत) and Parantapa (परन्तप).
The verse
By the delusion of the pairs, risen from desire and aversion, all beings go to complete delusion at creation, Bhārata (भारत), scorcher of the foe.
नेपालीमा
इच्छा र द्वेषबाट उठेको द्वन्द्वको मोहले सबै भूतहरू सृष्टि हुँदा पूरा मोहमा पुग्छन्, हे भारत, हे शत्रुलाई पोल्ने।
Where it sits
7.26 left a gap. He knows every being, and no one knows him. This verse fills it. The delusion of the pairs, risen from desire and aversion, meets beings at the flowing-forth, and they go into complete delusion. 7.28 will say who gets free of it.

The phrases
icchā-dveṣa-samutthena dvandva-mohena (इच्छा-द्वेष-समुत्थेन द्वन्द्व-मोहेन) is one cause, two instrumentals. By the delusion of the pairs of opposites, a delusion that has risen from wanting and from pushing away. Desire and aversion are the source, not a second name for the pairs. The vocative bhārata (भारत) sits in the middle of the phrase and is not a cause.
sarva-bhūtāni sammoham sarge yānti (सर्व-भूतानि सम्मोहम् सर्गे यान्ति) is what beings do. At creation they go into complete delusion. sarge (सर्गे) is the time: when the world flows forth, not at the hour of one person's death. param-tapa (परम्-तप) is the second vocative, at the end.
Sanskrit in this line
Both samutthena (समुत्थेन) and mohena (मोहेन) are instrumental singular of a (अ)-stems, ending --ena (एन). The instrumental answers "by." They are not two causes side by side. samutthena (समुत्थेन) describes mohena (मोहेन): the delusion is the thing that has risen from desire and aversion.
samuttha (समुत्थ) is सम् + उद् + स्था sam + ud + sthā, "stood up together, risen." Inside the word those pieces are already joined as uttha (उत्थ). You will not see sthā (स्था) sitting intact in samutthena (समुत्थेन).
Say it back
The cause, then when beings go into delusion. If sarge (सर्गे) becomes "at death," the verse has moved to 7.30 too early. Stay here.
