ततः सा दानवेंद्रस्य शैलमाया न्यवर्तत २१.
Then the mountain illusion of the demon king was dispelled.
बभूव कुंजरो भीमो महाशैलमयाकृतिः २१.
He became a fearsome elephant, with a body as massive as a great mountain.
बभंज पृष्ठतः कांश्चित्करेणाकृष्य दानवः २१.
The demon broke some from behind, seizing them with his trunk.
अस्त्रं त्रैलोक्यदुर्धर्षं नारसिंहं मुमोच ह २१.
He released the Narasimha weapon, formidable throughout the three worlds.
हृष्टदंष्ट्राट्टहासानि क्रकचाभनखानि च २१.
It had gleaming fangs, roaring laughter, and claws resembling saws.
ततश्चाशीविषो घोरोऽभवत्फणसमाकुलः २१.
Then a terrifying serpent appeared, its hood crowded with many heads.
ततोऽस्त्रं गारुडं चक्रे शक्रः संप्रहरन्रॅणे २१.
Indra, fighting in battle, employed the Garuda weapon.
तैर्गरुत्मद्भिरासाद्य जंभं भुजगरूपिणम् २१.
With those Garuda-powered missiles, he attacked Jambha, who had taken the form of a serpent.
मायायाम च प्रनष्टायां ततो जंभो महासुरः २१.
When the illusion was destroyed, Jambha, the great demon, remained.
विवृत्तनयनो ग्रस्तुमियेष सुरपुंगवान् २१.
With eyes wide open, he sought to devour the foremost of the gods.
सुरसेनाऽभवद्भीमं पातालोत्तालतालुकम् २१.
The Surasena region became terrifying, like the depths of the underworld.
शक्रो दीनत्वमापन्नः श्रांतवाहनवाहनः २१.
Indra became dejected, his vehicle exhausted from bearing him.
किमनंतरमेवास्ति कर्तव्यं नो विशेषतः २१.
What should be done next? There is nothing special to be done.
ततो हरिरुवाचेदं वज्रायुधमुदारधीः २१.
Then Hari, the noble-minded, spoke these words to the wielder of the thunderbolt.
मा गच्छ मोहं मा गच्छ क्षिप्रमस्त्रं स्मर प्रभो २१.
Do not fall into delusion, do not falter; quickly recall your weapon, O Lord.
एतस्मिन्नंतरे दैत्यो विवृतास्योऽग्रसत्क्षणात् २१.
At that moment, the demon, with mouth wide open, advanced instantly.
ततो नारायणास्त्रं च निपपातास्य वक्षसि २१.
Then the Narayana weapon fell upon his chest.
ततः स्वतेजसा रूपं तस्य दैत्यस्य नाशितंम् २१.
Thereupon, by its own brilliance, the form of that demon was destroyed.
गगनस्थः स दैत्येन्द्रः शस्त्राशनिमतींद्रियः २१.
That lord of demons, standing in the sky, possessed weapons, thunderbolts, and mighty senses.
तथा परश्वधांश्चक्रवज्रबाणान्समुद्गरान् २१.
Likewise, axes, discs, thunderbolts, arrows, and maces
ववर्ष दानवो रोषादवध्यानक्षयानपि २१.
The Danava, enraged, rained down, even those weapons that were invincible and inexhaustible.
बाहुभिर्धरणी पूर्णा शिरोभिश्च सकुंडलैः २१.
The earth was filled with arms and with heads adorned with earrings.
भग्नेषा दंडचक्राक्षै रथैभिः सह २१.
Chariots with broken axles and wheels lay scattered there.
रुधिरौघह्रदावर्ता गजदेहशिलोच्चया २१.
Whirlpools of blood formed lakes, and heaps of elephant bodies rose like rocks.
श्रृगालगृध्रध्वांक्षाणां परमानंदकारिणी २१.
It brought great delight to jackals, vultures, and crows.
असंभ्रमाभिर्भार्याभिः सह नृत्यद्भिरुद्धता २१.
With fearless wives, dancing wildly, they exulted.
पिशाचो यत्र चाश्वानां खुरानेकत्र चाकरोत् २१.
There, a ghoul gathered the hooves of horses in one place.
प्रसादयंति बहुधा महाकर्णार्थकोविदाः २१.
They gratified many, being skilled in the art of pleasing those with great ears.
आकल्पमेवं योद्धव्यमस्माकं तृप्तिहेतवे २१.
We must fight in this manner until we are satisfied.
म्रियते यदि संग्रामे धातुर्दद्भोऽपयाचितम् २१.
If one dies in battle, he receives what was requested from the Lord of elements.
