English Meaning
Even this is my native might this Räksasa will be no more. Hiranyakasipu, the graceful Namuci, and Sambara, Nişandi and Dhūmaketu and Virocana's offspring Bali, and the Daitya Śambhu that mighty monarchs, Vſtra and Bāņa; and Rājarșis versed in all branches of learnings and Gandharvas, and mighty serpents, and sages, and Pannagas and Yaksas, and swarms of Apsarās and the Earth herself containing vastly oceans and mountains and rivers and trees, at the unrolling of a Yuga all these, O mighty monarch have I brought to dissolution. All these and many more endowed with strength and incapable of being overcome, were at the very sight of me compassed with peril, and what is this ranger of the night?
