तच्चापि जगृहे रोषात्कपिश्चापं बभंज तत् । अन्यच्चापं समादत्त तद्बभंज महाबलः
Hanuman seized that bow too in anger and broke it; then he took up another bow and broke it with his great strength.
तस्मिंश्चापे प्रभग्नेऽपि सोऽन्यद्धनुरुपाददत् । सोपि चापं बभंजाशु महावेगसमन्वितः
Even when that bow was broken, Suratha took up yet another; Hanuman swiftly broke that bow as well, with immense speed.
एवं राज्ञस्तु चापानामशीतिर्विदलीकृता । क्षणे क्षणे महारोषात्कुर्वन्नादाननेकधा
Thus, in moments of great wrath, Hanuman shattered eighty bows of the king, making many resounding noises.
तदात्यंतं प्रकुपितः शक्तिमुग्रामथाददे । शक्त्या स ताडितो वीरः पपात क्षणमुत्सुकः
Then, extremely enraged, Suratha took up a fierce spear; struck by the spear, the hero fell for a moment, eager for battle.
उत्थाय स्यंदनं राज्ञो जग्राह कुपितो भृशम् । उड्डीनस्तं गृहीत्वा तु समुद्रमतिवेगतः
Rising up, the king, greatly enraged, seized his chariot; leaping, he took it and sped with extreme swiftness toward the ocean.
तमुड्डीनं समालक्ष्य सुरथः परवीरहा । ताडयामास परिघैर्हृदि मारुतिमुद्यतम्
Seeing him leap, Suratha, the destroyer of enemy heroes, struck the advancing Maruti in the chest with iron clubs.
मुक्तस्तेन रथो दूराच्चूर्णीभूतोऽभवत्क्षणात् । सोऽन्यरथं समारुह्य ययौ वेगात्समीरजम्
Freed by that blow, the chariot was instantly shattered to pieces from afar; mounting another chariot, he swiftly pursued the son of the Wind.
हनूमांस्तद्रथं पुच्छे संवेष्ट्य प्रधनांगणे । हयसारथिसंयुक्तं बभंज सपताकिनम्
Hanuman, wrapping that chariot with his tail in the midst of the main battlefield, broke it—along with its horses, charioteer, and banners.
अन्यं रथं समास्थाय ययौ राजा महाबलः । बभंज तं रथं वेगान्मारुतिः कुपितांगकः
Mounting another chariot, the mighty king advanced; but Maruti, his limbs furious, swiftly broke that chariot as well.
भग्नं तं स्यंदनं वीक्ष्य सुरथोऽन्यसमाश्रितः । भग्नः स तेन सहसा हयसारथिसंयुतः
Seeing that chariot destroyed, Suratha took refuge in another; but that too, with its horses and charioteer, was suddenly broken by him.
एवमेकोनपंचाशद्रथा भग्ना हनूमता । तत्कर्म वीक्ष्य राजापि विसिस्माय ससैनिकः
Thus, forty-nine chariots were broken by Hanuman; witnessing this feat, the king and his army were astonished.
कुपितः प्राह कीशेंद्रं धन्योसि पवनात्मज । पराक्रमन्निदं कर्म न कर्ता न करिष्यति
Enraged, he said to the lord of monkeys, 'Blessed are you, son of the Wind; no one has performed or will perform such a deed of valor.'
क्षणमेकं प्रतीक्षस्व यावत्सज्यं धनुस्त्वहम् । करोमि पवनोद्भूत रामपादाब्जषट्पद
'Wait for a moment while I string my bow; O offspring of the Wind, bee at Rama’s lotus feet, now I will act.'
इत्युक्त्वा चापमात्तज्यं कृत्वा रोषपरिप्लुतः । अस्त्रं पाशुपतं नाम संदधे शर उल्बणे
Having spoken thus, with his bow strung and filled with wrath, he fitted to his arrow the weapon called Pashupata.
ततो भूताश्च वेतालाः पिशाचा योगिनीमुखाः । प्रादुर्बभूवुः सहसा भीषयंतः समीरजम्
Then, spirits, ghouls, and witches appeared suddenly, terrifying the son of the Wind.
कपिः पाशुपतैरस्त्रैर्बद्धो लोकैरभीक्षितः । हाहेति च वदंत्येते यावत्तावत्समीरजः
The monkey, bound by the Pashupata weapons and watched by all worlds, heard them cry out 'Alas!'—yet the son of the Wind remained.
स्मृत्वा रामं स्वमनसा त्रोटयामास तत्क्षणात् । स मुक्तगात्रः सहसा युयुधे सुरथं नृपम्
Remembering Rama in his mind, he instantly broke those bonds; freed in body, he suddenly fought with King Suratha.
तं मुक्तगात्रं संवीक्ष्य सुरथः परमास्त्रवित् । महाबलं मन्यमानो ब्राह्ममस्त्रं समाददे
Seeing him freed, Suratha, master of great weapons, thinking him immensely powerful, took up the Brahma weapon.
मारुतिर्ब्राह्ममस्त्रं तु निजगाल हसन्बली । तन्निगीर्णं नृपो दृष्ट्वा रामं सस्मार भूमिपः
But Maruti, powerful and smiling, swallowed the Brahma weapon; seeing it consumed, the king remembered Rama.
स्मृत्वा दाशरथिं रामं रामास्त्रं स्वशरासने । संधाय तं जगादेदं बद्धोसि कपिपुंगव
Recalling Rama, son of Dasharatha, he fitted the Rama weapon to his own bow and said to him, 'Now you are bound, foremost of monkeys.'
श्रुत्वा तत्प्रक्रमेद्यावत्तावद्बद्धो रणांगणे । राज्ञा रामास्त्रतो वीरो हनूमान्रामसेवकः
Hearing this, Hanuman, the servant of Rama, was immediately bound on the battlefield by the king with the Rama weapon.
उवाच भूपं हनुमान्किंकरोमि महीभुज । मत्स्वाम्यस्त्रेण संबद्धो नान्येन प्राकृतेन वै
Hanuman said to the king, 'What can I do, O lord of the earth? Bound by my master's weapon, I cannot be restrained by any ordinary means.'
तन्मानयामिभूपालनयस्वस्वपुरंप्रति । मोचयिष्यति मत्स्वामी आगत्य स दयानिधिः
Bring the king back to his own city; my master, the ocean of compassion, will come and release him.
बद्धे समीरजे क्रुद्धः पुष्कलो भूमिपं ययौ । तं पुष्कलं समायांतं विव्याध वसुभिः शरैः
When the king was bound by Samīraja, Puṣkala, enraged, went to the king; as Puṣkala approached, he struck him with arrows rich in wealth.
अनेकबाणसाहस्रैर्निजघान नृपं बली । राज्ञानेके शरास्तस्य च्छिन्नाः प्रधनमंडले
With countless thousands of arrows, the mighty Puṣkala slew the king; many of the king's arrows were broken in the main battlefield.
एवं समरसंक्रुद्धे सुरथे पुष्कले तथा । बाणैर्व्याप्तं जगत्सर्वं स्थास्नुभूयश्चरिष्णु च
Thus, as Suratha and Puṣkala fought fiercely in battle, the entire world, both stationary and moving, was filled with arrows.
तेषां रणोद्यमं वीक्ष्य मुमुहुः सुरसैनिकाः । मानवानां तु का वार्ता क्षणात्त्रासं समीयुषाम्
Seeing their zeal for battle, the divine soldiers were bewildered; what can be said of humans, who were terrified in an instant.
अस्त्रप्रत्यस्त्रविगमैर्महामंत्रपरिस्तुतैः । बभूव तुमुलं युद्धं वीराणां रोमहर्षणम्
With the exchange of weapons and counter-weapons, praised by great mantras, the tumultuous battle of heroes became hair-raising.
तदा प्रकुपितो राजा नाराचं तु समाददे । छिन्नः स तु क्रुधा मुक्तैर्वत्सदंतैः सभारतैः
Then, the enraged king took up a nārāca arrow; but it was cut down by the furious blows of Vatsadanta and the Bhāratas.
छिन्ने तस्मिञ्छरे राजा कोपादन्यं समाददे । छिनत्ति यावत्स शरं तावल्लग्नो हृदि क्षतः
When that arrow was cut, the king, in anger, took up another; as he was about to cut the arrow, he was struck in the heart and wounded.
