English Meaning
Hearing those words, Kumbhakarņa said,' O god of gods, my wish is that I may sleep for a good many years.' Thereupon, saying,' So be it, “Brahmä along with the celestials went away; and the goddess, Sarasvati, also again left the Rākşasa. And on Brahmă accompanied by the deities going to the celestial regions, he was renounced by Sarasvatī, and then he regained his consciousness. And then the wicked-minded Kumbhakarņa sorrowfully thought.
