अहो रूपमहो धैर्यमहो सत्त्वमहो द्युतिः। अहो राक्षसराजस्य सर्वलक्षणयुक्तता ॥ यद्यधर्मो न बलवान् स्यादयं राक्षसेश्वरः। स्यादयं सुरलोकस्य सशक्रस्यापि रक्षिता॥
aho rūpamaho dhairyamaho sattvamaho dyutiḥ| aho rākṣasarājasya sarvalakṣaṇayuktatā || yadyadharmo na balavān syādayaṃ rākṣaseśvaraḥ| syādayaṃ suralokasya saśakrasyāpi rakṣitā||
English Meaning
Ah! the form! Ah! the patience! Ah! the strength! Ah! the splendour! Ah! the entire auspiciousness of the king of Rākşasas! If the lord of Rākṣasas were not impious to the height, this one could well be the protector themselves of the celestial regions with Śakra.
— M.N. Dutt (1891–94, public domain)
