इत्येवं तरलतरोर्मिसंकुलं ते गम्भीरं विकसितमम्बरप्रकाशम्। पातालज्वलनशिखाविदीपिताङ्गं गर्जन्तं द्रुतमभिजग्मतुस्ततस्ते
Thus, with its swiftly moving, surging waves, deep and wide, shining like the open sky, its body lit by flames from the netherworld, roaring, they quickly approached it.
तं समुद्रमतिक्रम्य कद्रूर्विनतया सह। न्यपतत्तुरगाभ्याशे न चिरादिव शीघ्रगा
Crossing that ocean together with Vinata, Kadru swiftly descended near the horse, as if in no time at all.
ततस्ते तं हयश्रेष्ठं ददृशाते महाजवम्। शशाङ्ककिरणप्रख्यं कालवालमुभे तदा
Then they saw that best of horses, of great speed, shining like the rays of the moon, with both its manes dark as time.
निशाम्य च बहून्वालान्कृष्णान्पुच्छसमाश्रितान्। विषण्णरूपां विनतां कद्रूर्दास्ये न्ययोजयत्
Seeing many black hairs at the root of its tail, Kadru, making Vinata despondent, bound her to servitude.
ततः सा विनता तस्मिन्पणितेन पराजिता। अभवद्दुःखसंतप्ता दासीभावं समास्थिता
Thus, Vinata, defeated by that wager, became afflicted with sorrow and entered into the state of a servant.
एतस्मिन्नन्तरे चापि गरुडः काल आगते। विना मात्रा महातेजा विदार्याण्डमजायत
Meanwhile, when the time had come, Garuda, of great splendor, was born from the egg, breaking it open, without his mother.
महासत्त्वबलोपेतः सर्वा विद्योतयन्दिशः। कामरूपः कामगमः कामवीर्यो विहंगमः
Endowed with immense strength and power, illuminating all directions, able to assume any form, to go anywhere, and to act at will, the bird was born.
अग्निराशिरिवोद्भासन्समिद्धोऽतिभयंकरः। विद्युद्विस्पष्टपिङ्गाक्षो युगान्ताग्निसमप्रभः
Shining like a mass of blazing fire, exceedingly fearsome, with eyes bright as lightning, his radiance rivaled the fire at the end of an age.
प्रवृद्धः सहसा पक्षी महाकायो नभोगतः। घोरो घोरस्वनो रौद्रो वह्निरौर्व इवापरः
Suddenly grown, the great-bodied bird soared into the sky, terrible, with a dreadful roar, fierce like another submarine fire.
तं दृष्ट्वा शरणं जग्मुर्देवाः सर्वे विभावसुम्। प्रमिपत्याब्रुवंश्चैनमासीनं विश्वरूपिणम्
Seeing him, all the gods sought refuge with Agni, and bowing, they addressed him, who sat there in universal form.
अग्ने मा त्वं प्रवर्धिष्ठाः कच्चिन्नो न दिधक्षसि। असौ हि राशिः सुमहान्समिद्धस्तव सर्पति
"O Agni, do not increase further; surely you do not wish to burn us? For that great mass, fully kindled, is rushing forth from you."
नैतदेवं यथा यूयं मन्यध्वमसुरार्दनाः। गरुडो बलवानेष मम तुल्यश्च तेजसा
"It is not as you think, O destroyers of Asuras; this Garuda is powerful, equal to me in energy."
जातः परमतेजस्वी विनतानन्दवर्धनः। तेजोराशिमिमं दृष्ट्वा युष्मान्मोहः समाविशत्
"Born with supreme brilliance, the joy of Vinata, seeing this mass of energy, confusion has overtaken you all."
नागक्षयकरश्चै काश्यपेयो महाबलः। देवानां च हिते युक्तस्त्वहितो दैत्यरक्षसाम्
"He, the destroyer of serpents, the mighty son of Kashyapa, is devoted to the welfare of the gods and the harm of Daityas and Rakshasas."
न भीः कार्या कथं चात्र पश्यध्वं सहिता मया
"There is no need for fear here; behold him together with me."
त्वमृषिस्त्वं महाभागस्त्वं देवः पतगेश्वरः
"You are a sage, you are greatly fortunate, you are a god, the lord of birds."
त्वं प्रभुस्तपनः सूर्यः परमेष्ठी प्रजापतिः। त्वमिन्द्रस्त्वं हयमुखस्त्वं शर्वस्त्वं जगत्पतिः
You are the lord, the illuminator, the Sun, the supreme creator, the progenitor; you are Indra, you are the lord of horses, you are Śarva, you are the master of the world.
त्वं मुखं पद्मजी विप्रस्त्वमग्निः पवनस्तथा। त्वं हि धाता विधाता च त्वं विष्णुः सुरसत्तमः
You are the face of the lotus-born, the priest; you are Agni and also the wind; you are indeed the sustainer and the arranger, you are Viṣṇu, best among the gods.
त्वं महानभिभूः शश्वदमृतं त्वं महद्यशः। त्वं प्रभास्त्वमभिप्रेतं त्वं नस्त्राणमनुत्तमम्
You are the great, unconquered, eternal, immortal; you are great fame; you are radiance, you are the desired, you are our supreme protection.
ह्यनागतं चोपगतं च सर्वम्
All that is yet to come and all that has arrived.
त्वमुत्तमः सर्वमिदं चराचरं गभस्तिभिर्भानुरिवावभाससे। समाक्षिपन्भानुमतः प्रभां मुहु- स्त्वमन्तकः सर्वमिदं ध्रुवाध्रुवम्
You are the highest; all this, movable and immovable, shines forth by your rays as the sun by its beams; repeatedly withdrawing the light from the luminous, you are the ender of all, both stable and unstable.
दिवाकरः परिकुपितो यथा दहे- त्प्रजास्तथा दहसि हुताशनप्रभ। भयंकरः प्रलय इवाग्निरुत्थितो विनाशयन्युगपरिवर्तनान्तकृत्
Just as the enraged sun would burn the creatures, so you burn with the brilliance of fire; terrifying as the fire of dissolution arisen, you destroy, bringing about the end of the age.
खगेश्वरं शरणमुपागता वयं महौजसं ज्वलनसमानवर्चसम्। तडित्प्रभं वितिमिरमभ्रगोचरं महाबलं गरुडमुपेत्य खेचरम्
We have come to you, lord of birds, for refuge, mighty, equal in brilliance to fire, radiant like lightning, dispelling darkness, moving among clouds, great in strength, Garuḍa, who moves in the sky.
परावरं वरदमजय्यविक्रमं तवौजस सर्वमिदं प्रतापितम्। जगत्प्रभो तप्तसुवर्णवर्चसा त्वं पाहि सर्वांश्च सुरान्महात्मनः
You are the giver of boons, the lord of both the distant and the near, unconquerable in valor; by your energy all this is heated, O lord of the world, with the brilliance of refined gold; protect all the gods, O great-souled one.
भयान्विता नभसि विमानगामिनो विमानिता विपथगतिं प्रयान्ति ते। ऋषेः सुतस्त्वमसि दयावतः प्रभो महात्मनः खगवर कश्यपस्य ह
Filled with fear, those who travel in the sky in flying vehicles, made to wander, go along the wrong path because of you; you are the son of the sage, compassionate lord, O great-souled, best of birds, Kaśyapa's son.
स मा क्रुधः कुरु जगतो दयां परां त्वमीश्वरः प्रशममुपैहि पाहि नः। महाशनिस्फुरितसमस्वनेन ते दिशोऽम्बरं त्रिदिवमियं च मेदिनी
Do not be angry with us; show supreme compassion to the world; you are the lord, attain calm and protect us; with your thunderous, resounding voice, the directions, the sky, heaven, and this earth tremble.
शिवश्च नो भव भगवन्सुखावहः
O blessed one, be auspicious to us, bringer of happiness.
एवं स्तुतः सुपर्णस्तु देवैः सर्षिगणैस्तदा। तेजसः प्रतिसंहारमात्मनः स चकार ह
Thus praised by the gods and the hosts of sages, Suparṇa then withdrew his own energy.
ततः कामगमः पक्षी महावीर्यो महाबलः। मातुरन्तिकमागच्छत्परं पारं महोदधेः
Then the bird, able to go wherever he wished, of great strength and power, approached his mother at the far shore of the great ocean.
यत्र सा विनता तस्मिन्पणितेन पराजिता। अतीव दुःखसंतप्ता दासीभावमुपागता
There, Vinatā, defeated by a wager, was greatly afflicted by sorrow and had come into the state of servitude.
