दैत्यानां किल धर्मज्ञ पुरेयं वसनार्णवा॥ सपर्वता मही वीर तेऽभवन्प्रभविष्णवः। निहत्य तांस्तु समरे विष्णुना प्रभविष्णुना ॥ देवानां वशमानीतं त्रैलोक्यमिदमव्ययम्।
daityānāṃ kila dharmajña pureyaṃ vasanārṇavā|| saparvatā mahī vīra te'bhavanprabhaviṣṇavaḥ| nihatya tāṃstu samare viṣṇunā prabhaviṣṇunā || devānāṃ vaśamānītaṃ trailokyamidamavyayam|
English Meaning
O you cognisant of righteousness, formerly this earth, O hero, having the ocean for her garment, and furnished with mountains, belonged to the Daityas; and (gradually) they grew very powerful. And then this undeteriorating triune world was brought under the dominion of the celestials.
— M.N. Dutt (1891–94, public domain)
