महामेरुप्रतीकाशं मां द्रक्ष्यध्वं प्लवङ्गमाः॥ दिवमावृत्य गच्छन्तं ग्रसमानमिवाम्बरम्। विधमिष्यामि जीमूतान् कम्पयिष्यामि पर्वतान्। सागरं शोषयिष्यामि प्लवमानः समाहितः॥

English Meaning
Resembling Mahāmeru, me shall behold, you monkeys, making my way, covering up sky, as if devouring up the heavens. I shall, leaping concentrating my energy, scatter the clouds, shake the I and suck up the ocean.
