पतिते च गजे तस्मिन्सिंहनादो महानभूत् २१.
When that elephant fell, a great lion-roar arose.
हेषारवेण चाश्वानां राणास्फोटैश्च धन्विनाम् २१.
There was the neighing of horses and the thunderous sounds of bowmen in battle.
सुराणां सिंहनादं च सन्नादितदिगंतरम् २१.
The lion-roar of the gods resounded, filling all directions.
ततः स कोपरक्ताक्षो ध्नुष्यारोप्य सायकम् २१.
Then, his eyes red with anger, he fitted an arrow to his bow.
तमायांतमभिप्रेक्ष्य धनुष्याहितसा यकम् २१.
Seeing him approach, with the arrow set to the bow,
बाणं च तैलधौताग्रमर्धचंद्रमजिह्मगम्॥ २१.
The arrow had an oiled, polished tip, was half-moon shaped, and slightly curved.
तेनास्यट सशरं चापं चिच्छेद बलवृत्रहा २१.
With that, the mighty slayer of Vṛtra cut his bow and arrow.
अन्यत्कार्मुकादाय वेगवद्भारसाधनम् २१.
Taking up another bow, strong and swift,
शक्रं विव्याध दशभिर्जत्रुदेशे च पत्रिबिः २१.
He struck Śakra with ten feathered arrows at the region of the collarbone.
शक्रोपि दानवेन्द्राय बाणजालम भीरयन् २१.
Śakra, too, unleashed a terrifying shower of arrows at the lord of the demons.
चिच्छेद शतधाऽऽकाशे शरैरग्निशिखोपमैः २१.
He cut them apart in the sky into a hundred pieces with arrows like tongues of fire.
आच्छादयत यत्नेन वर्षास्विव घनैर्नभः २१.
With effort, he covered the sky as clouds do during the rains.
यथा वायुर्घनाटोपं यदवार्यं दिशां मुखे २१.
Just as the wind disperses dense clouds at the meeting of the directions,
दानवेन्द्रं तदा चक्रे गंधर्वास्त्रं महाद्भुतम् २१.
Then, the lord of the demons employed the wondrous Gandharva weapon.
गन्धर्वनगरैश्चापि नानाप्राकारतोरणैः २१.
And with cities of the Gandharvas, adorned with various kinds of ramparts and gateways.
तयास्त्रवृष्ट्या दैत्यानां हन्यमाना महाचमूः २१.
By that shower of weapons, the great army of the Daityas was being destroyed.
ततो जंभो महावीर्यो विनद्य प्रहसन्मुहुः २१.
Then Jambha, of great might, roared and laughed repeatedly.
ततोऽस्त्रं मौशलंनाम मुमोच सुमहाभयम् २१.
Then he released the weapon called Maushala, exceedingly terrifying.
तैश्च भग्नानि सर्वाणि गंधर्वनगराणि च २१.
By those, all the Gandharva cities were shattered.
चूर्णयामास तत्क्षिप्रं शतशोऽथ सहस्रशः २१.
He quickly crushed them by the hundreds and thousands.
संध्यमाने ततश्चास्त्रे निश्चेरुः पावकार्चिषः २१.
As that weapon was being employed, flames of fire burst forth.
तैर्यंत्रैरभवद्युद्धमंतरिक्षं वितारकम् २१.
With those machines, the battle in the sky became widespread.
शैलास्त्रं मुमुचे जंभो यंत्रसंघातचूर्णनम् २१.
Jambha released the mountain-weapon, which pulverizes groups of machines.
त्वाष्ट्रोण निर्मितान्याशु यानि यंत्राणि भारत २१.
Those machines, swiftly made by Tvashtar, O Bharata,
ततः शिरस्सु देवानां शिलाः पेतुर्महाजवाः २१.
Then, upon the heads of the gods, stones of great speed fell.
ततो वज्रास्त्रमकरोत्सस्राक्षः पुरंदरः २१.
Then Purandara, with eyes like lotuses, employed the thunderbolt-weapon.
ततः प्रशांतैः शैलास्त्रैर्जंभो भूधरसन्निभः २१.
Then Jambha, massive as a mountain, with the mountain-weapons pacified,
ऐषीकेणागमन्नाशं वज्रास्त्रं गिरिदारणम् २१.
With the Aishika weapon, he countered the thunderbolt-weapon that splits mountains.
जज्वलुर्देवसैन्यानि सस्यंदनगजानि च २१.
The armies of the gods, along with their chariots and elephants, blazed forth.
आग्नेयमस्त्रमकरोद्बलहा पाकशासनः २१.
Then Balaha, the slayer of Paka, employed the fire-weapon.
