मुमोच मुद्गरं भीमं सहस्राक्षाय संगरे २१.
He hurled a terrible mace at Indra in the battle.
रथादाप्लुत्य धरणीमगमत्पाकशासनः २१.
Indra leapt from his chariot and descended to the earth.
स रथं चूर्णयामास न ममार च मातलिः २१.
He crushed the chariot, but Mātali did not die.
स्कन्धे गरुत्मतः सोऽपि निषसाद विचेतनः २१.
Then, unconscious, he collapsed onto the shoulder of Garuḍa.
यमं च पातयामास भूमौ दैत्यो मुखे हतम् २१.
The demon struck Yama, who fell to the ground, his mouth wounded.
वायुं पदा तदाक्षिप्य पातयामास भूतले २१.
He also struck Vāyu with his foot, casting him down to the earth.
ततो देवनिकायानामेकैकं क्षणमात्रतः २१.
Then, in a single moment, he attacked each host of the gods.
लब्धसंज्ञस्ततो विष्णुश्चक्रं जग्राह दुर्धरम् २१.
Regaining consciousness, Viṣṇu then seized his formidable discus.
मुमोच दानवेंद्रस्य दृढं वक्षसि केशवः २१.
Keśava hurled it firmly at the chest of the lord of the demons.
व्यशीर्यताथ कायेऽस्य नीलोत्पलमिवाश्मनि २१.
It shattered upon his body like a blue lotus against a stone.
तस्मिञ्जयाशा शक्रस्य दानवेन्द्राय संयुगे २१.
In that battle, Indra’s hope for victory was for the lord of the demons.
विशीर्यत विकीर्णार्चिः शतधा खण्डशो गतम् २१.
It broke apart, its blazing radiance scattered in a hundred fragments.
ज्वलितज्वलनाभासमंकुशं प्रमुमोच ह २१.
He released a goad blazing like burning fire.
ततः शैलेन्द्रमुत्पाट्य पुष्पितद्रुमकंदरम् २१.
Then, uprooting a mountain crowned with blossoming trees,
महीधरं तमायांतं सस्मितं दैत्यपुंगवः २१.
The foremost of demons, smiling, hurled that approaching mountain.
ततस्तेनैव चाहत्य पातयामास चांतकम् २१.
With that very mountain he struck and felled Antaka.
दैत्येन्द्रमूर्ध्नि चिक्षेप भ्राम्य वेगेन दुर्जयम् २१.
He whirled it with force and cast it at the head of the lord of demons, hard to withstand.
कल्पांतलोकदहनो ज्वलनो रोषसंज्वलन् २१.
Blazing with wrath, the fire that burns the worlds at the end of an age appeared.
ततः शिरीषमालेव सास्य वक्षस्यराजत २१.
Then, like a silk-cotton flower, it rested upon his shining chest.
द्युति भासितत्रैलोक्यं लोकपालोऽपि निर्ऋतिः २१.
Even Nirṛti, guardian of the world, shone, illuminating the three worlds with his radiance.
पतितश्चागमत्खड्गः स शीघ्रं शतखण्डताम् २१.
The sword fell and swiftly shattered into a hundred pieces.
मुमोच पाशं दैत्येन्द्रभुजबन्धाबिलाषुकः २१.
He released a noose, eager to bind the arms of the lord of the demons.
स्फुटितः क्रकचक्रूरदशनालिरहीश्वरः २१.
The cruel saw-toothed lord of serpents was split apart.
यक्षराक्षसगनधर्वाः सर्पाश्चास्त्रैः पृथग्विधैः २१.
Yakshas, Rakshasas, Gandharvas, and serpents attacked with various weapons.
न चास्त्राण्यस्यासज्जन्त गात्रे वज्राचलोपमे २१.
Yet their weapons could not attach to his body, which was like a thunderbolt or mountain.
जघान कोटिशः क्रुद्धो मुष्टिपार्ष्णिभिरेव च २१.
Enraged, he struck down millions with his fists and heels.
पलायध्वमहो देवा वदन्नन्तर्हितोऽभवत् २१.
He said, 'Flee, O gods!' and vanished from sight.
कालनेमिमुखैर्दैत्येरुपरुद्धा मदोत्कटैः २१.
The gods were blocked by the demon faces of Kalanemi and others, swollen with pride.
तारिताः शुष्कसरितं देवमार्गाश्च दंशिताः २१.
They were driven across dry rivers, and the divine paths were bitten.
ततो निनादः संजज्ञे दैत्यानां बलशालिनाम् २१.
Then a roar arose from the powerful army of demons.
