vānarānvānaraireva jaghnuste naitarṣabhāḥ| rākṣasānrākṣasaireva jaghnuste vānarā api|| ākṣipya ca śilāḥ śailāñjaghnuste rākṣasāstadā| teṣāṃ cācchidya śastrāṇi jaghnū rakṣāṃsi vānarāḥ|| nirjaghnuḥ śailaśṛṅgaiśca bibhiduśca parasparam| siṃhanādānvineduśca raṇe rākṣasavānarāḥ||
Those foremost of Naiſtas slew monkeys with (the dead bodies of monkeys); and the monkeys smote Rākṣasas with (the dead bodies of) Rāks asas; and the Raksasas slew (the monkeys), hurling rocks and crags. And snatching away their own arms by main force, the monkeys finished Rākṣasa; and they, slaughtered them with mountain-peaks, and also wounded each other. The monkeys and Räkşasas emitted leonine roars in the encounter.
— M.N. Dutt (1891–94, public domain)
छिन्नवर्मतनुत्राणा राक्षसा वानरैर्हताः। रुधिरं प्रसृतास्तत्र रससारमिव दुमाः॥
chinnavarmatanutrāṇā rākṣasā vānarairhatāḥ| rudhiraṃ prasṛtāstatra rasasāramiva dumāḥ||
The Rākşasas, slain by the monkeys, having their mail and defence for the body rent, bled like to trees exuding sap.
— M.N. Dutt (1891–94, public domain)
रथेन च रथं चापि वारणेनापि वारणम्। हयेन च हयं केचिनिर्जघ्नुर्वानरा रणे॥
rathena ca rathaṃ cāpi vāraṇenāpi vāraṇam| hayena ca hayaṃ kecinirjaghnurvānarā raṇe||
And in that encounter, some among the monkeys destroyed cars with cars, elephants with elephants, and steeds with steeds.
— M.N. Dutt (1891–94, public domain)
क्षुरप्रैरर्धचन्द्रैश्च भल्लैश्च निशितैः शरैः। राक्षसा वानरेन्द्राणां बिभिदुः पादपाशिलाः॥
kṣuraprairardhacandraiśca bhallaiśca niśitaiḥ śaraiḥ| rākṣasā vānarendrāṇāṃ bibhiduḥ pādapāśilāḥ||
The Raksasas rived the trees and rocks of the foremost monkeys by means of Kșurapras and crescents and sharpened Bhallas and arrows.
— M.N. Dutt (1891–94, public domain)
विकीर्णा पर्वतास्तैश्च दुमच्छिन्नैश्च संयुगे। हतैश्च कपिरक्षोभिर्दुर्गमा वसुधाभवत्॥
vikīrṇā parvatāstaiśca dumacchinnaiśca saṃyuge| hataiśca kapirakṣobhirdurgamā vasudhābhavat||
In that encounter the earth became impassable, having been scattered with crags baffled and severed trees and (warriors) slain by monkeys and Rākṣasa.
— M.N. Dutt (1891–94, public domain)
ते वानरा गर्वितहृष्टचेष्टाः संग्राममासाद्य भयं विमुच्य। युद्धं स्म सर्वे सह राक्षसैस्ते नानायुधाश्चक्रुरदीनसत्त्वाः॥
te vānarā garvitahṛṣṭaceṣṭāḥ saṃgrāmamāsādya bhayaṃ vimucya| yuddhaṃ sma sarve saha rākṣasaiste nānāyudhāścakruradīnasattvāḥ||
Those monkeys, equipped with various weapons and with their vigour unworn, entering upon the conflict casting off fear, cheerfully putting forth efforts springing from pride of spirit, warred on with the Räkşasas.
— M.N. Dutt (1891–94, public domain)
तस्मिन्प्रवृत्ते तुमुले विमर्दे प्रहष्यमाणेषु वलीमुखेषु। निपात्यमानेषु च राक्षसेषु महर्षयो देवगणाश्च नेदुः॥
tasminpravṛtte tumule vimarde prahaṣyamāṇeṣu valīmukheṣu| nipātyamāneṣu ca rākṣaseṣu maharṣayo devagaṇāśca neduḥ||
In that fearful conflict, which was being waged, on the monkeys having been exhilarated and the Rākşasas having been brought down, the Maharsis and the deities sent up shouts.
— M.N. Dutt (1891–94, public domain)
मारुह्य शक्तिं निशितां प्रगृह्य। नरान्तको वानरसैन्यमुग्रं महार्णवं मीन इवाविवेश॥
māruhya śaktiṃ niśitāṃ pragṛhya| narāntako vānarasainyamugraṃ mahārṇavaṃ mīna ivāviveśa||
Then mounted on a charger endued with the celerity of the wind, and grasping a whetted dart, Narāntaka entered into that fierce army of monkeys, like a fish diving into the deep.
— M.N. Dutt (1891–94, public domain)
स वानरान्सप्त शतानि वीरः प्रासेन दीप्तेन विनिर्बिभेद। एक: क्षणेनेन्द्ररिपूर्महात्मा जघान सैन्यं हरिपुङ्गवानाम्॥
sa vānarānsapta śatāni vīraḥ prāsena dīptena vinirbibheda| eka: kṣaṇenendraripūrmahātmā jaghāna sainyaṃ haripuṅgavānām||
That hero by means of an effulgent bearded dart pierced seven hundred monkeys, and at one time the high-souled enemy of Indra slew the army of the foremost of monkeys.
— M.N. Dutt (1891–94, public domain)
ददृशुश्च महात्मानं हयपृष्ठप्रतिष्ठितम्। चरन्तं हरिसैन्यैषु विद्याधरमहर्षयः॥
dadṛśuśca mahātmānaṃ hayapṛṣṭhapratiṣṭhitam| carantaṃ harisainyaiṣu vidyādharamaharṣayaḥ||
The Vidyadharas and Maharsis saw that highsouled one mounted on horseback, ranging the monkey-ranks.
— M.N. Dutt (1891–94, public domain)
स तस्य ददृशे मार्गो मांसशोणितकर्दमः। पतितैः पर्वताकारैर्वानरैरभिसंवृतः॥
sa tasya dadṛśe mārgo māṃsaśoṇitakardamaḥ| patitaiḥ parvatākārairvānarairabhisaṃvṛtaḥ||
His course was discovered, miry with flesh and blood and blocked up with mountain-like monkeys fallen.
— M.N. Dutt (1891–94, public domain)
यावद्विक्रमितुं बुद्धिं चक्रुः प्लवगपुङ्गवाः। तावदेतानतिक्रम्य निर्बिभेद नरान्तकाः। ७०॥
yāvadvikramituṃ buddhiṃ cakruḥ plavagapuṅgavāḥ| tāvadetānatikramya nirbibheda narāntakāḥ| 70||
When the monkeys set their hearts on displaying their prowess, Narāntaka, baffling them, pierced them with shafts.
— M.N. Dutt (1891–94, public domain)
ददाह हरिसैन्यानि वनानीव विभावसुः। यावदुत्पाटयामासुर्वृक्षाशैलान्वनौकसः॥ तावत्प्रासहताः पेतुर्वज्रकृत्ता इवाचलाः।
dadāha harisainyāni vanānīva vibhāvasuḥ| yāvadutpāṭayāmāsurvṛkṣāśailānvanaukasaḥ|| tāvatprāsahatāḥ peturvajrakṛttā ivācalāḥ|
He consumed the monkey-army, like fire burning a forest. And when the wood-rangers uprooted trees and crags, they slain by bearded darts dropped down like mountains riven by the thunder.
— M.N. Dutt (1891–94, public domain)
ज्वलन्तं प्रासमुद्यम्य संग्रामान्ते नरान्तकः॥ दिक्षु सर्वासु बलवान्विचचार नरान्तकः। प्रमृद्गन्सर्वतो युद्धे प्रावृट्काले यथानिलः।७३।।
jvalantaṃ prāsamudyamya saṃgrāmānte narāntakaḥ|| dikṣu sarvāsu balavānvicacāra narāntakaḥ| pramṛdgansarvato yuddhe prāvṛṭkāle yathānilaḥ|73||
Raising a glowing prasa, the powerful Narāntaka began to range about in the rear of the forces; dashing everywhere (against the foe) in fight, like the wind in the rainy season. *Sangramānte, I presume, means rear of the forces; although literally it means, at the conclusion of the conflict, because this interpretation would not be proper, the battle being now at its hottest.
— M.N. Dutt (1891–94, public domain)
न शेकुर्भाषितुं वीरा न स्थातुं स्पन्दितुं कुतः। उत्पतन्तं स्थितं यान्तं सर्वान्विव्याध वीर्यवान्॥
na śekurbhāṣituṃ vīrā na sthātuṃ spandituṃ kutaḥ| utpatantaṃ sthitaṃ yāntaṃ sarvānvivyādha vīryavān||
The heroes could not appear prominently, or keep their posts. And how could they then move freely? And that one endued with prowess pierced everyone, whether springing, or staying, or moving.
— M.N. Dutt (1891–94, public domain)
एकेनान्तककल्पेन प्रासेनादित्यतेजसा। भग्नानि हरिसैन्यानि निपेतुर्धरणीतले।७५।।
ekenāntakakalpena prāsenādityatejasā| bhagnāni harisainyāni nipeturdharaṇītale|75||
Broken through by a single praśa, resembling the Reaper, and furnished with solar effulgence, the monkey-ranks began to roll on the earth.
— M.N. Dutt (1891–94, public domain)
वज्रनिष्पेषसदृशं प्रासस्याभिनिपातनम्। न शेकुर्वानराः सोढुं ते विनेदुर्महास्वनम्॥
vajraniṣpeṣasadṛśaṃ prāsasyābhinipātanam| na śekurvānarāḥ soḍhuṃ te vinedurmahāsvanam||
The monkeys were ill fitted to bear the impetus of that präśa having the touch of thunder itself; and they raised a loud cry.
— M.N. Dutt (1891–94, public domain)
पततां हरिवीराणां रूपाणि प्रचकाशिरे। वभिन्नाग्रकूटानां शैलानां पततामिव। ७७।।
patatāṃ harivīrāṇāṃ rūpāṇi pracakāśire| vabhinnāgrakūṭānāṃ śailānāṃ patatāmiva| 77||
The appearances of those monkey-heroes falling were like mountains toppling, having their summits riven with the thunder-bolt.
— M.N. Dutt (1891–94, public domain)
ये तु पूर्व महात्मानः कुम्भकर्णेन पातिताः। ते स्वस्था वानरश्रेष्ठाः सुग्रीवमुपतस्थिरे॥
ye tu pūrva mahātmānaḥ kumbhakarṇena pātitāḥ| te svasthā vānaraśreṣṭhāḥ sugrīvamupatasthire||
Those high-souled and powerful monkeys that formerly had been brought down by Kumbhakarma, having recovered, were present with Sugrīva in this encounter.
— M.N. Dutt (1891–94, public domain)
प्रेक्षमाणः स सुग्रीवो ददृशे हरिवाहिनीम्। नरान्तक यत्रस्तां विद्रवन्ती यतस्ततः। ७९।।
prekṣamāṇaḥ sa sugrīvo dadṛśe harivāhinīm| narāntaka yatrastāṃ vidravantī yatastataḥ| 79||
Sugrīva, looking around, saw that monkeyarmy flying in all directions, agitated with the fear of Narantaka.
— M.N. Dutt (1891–94, public domain)
विद्वतां वाहिनीं दृष्ट्वा स ददर्श नरान्तकम्। गृहीतप्रासमायान्तं हयपृष्ठप्रतिष्ठितम् ॥
vidvatāṃ vāhinīṃ dṛṣṭvā sa dadarśa narāntakam| gṛhītaprāsamāyāntaṃ hayapṛṣṭhapratiṣṭhitam ||
After seeing the army in flight, he saw Narāntaka himself, advancing, wielding a prasa, and mounted on a steed.
— M.N. Dutt (1891–94, public domain)
दृष्ट्वोवाच महातेजाः सुग्रीवो वानराधिपः। कुमारमङ्गदं वीरं शक्रतुल्यपराक्रमम्॥
dṛṣṭvovāca mahātejāḥ sugrīvo vānarādhipaḥ| kumāramaṅgadaṃ vīraṃ śakratulyaparākramam||
As soon as he saw (that hero), the exceedingly energetic lord of monkeys, Sugriva addressed the heroic prince Angada endowed with strength equal to that of Indra, saying.
— M.N. Dutt (1891–94, public domain)
गच्छैनं राक्षसं वीरं योऽसौ तुरगमास्थितैः। भक्षयन्तं परबलं क्षिप्रं प्राणैर्वियोजय।८२॥
gacchainaṃ rākṣasaṃ vīraṃ yo'sau turagamāsthitaiḥ| bhakṣayantaṃ parabalaṃ kṣipraṃ prāṇairviyojaya|82||
Go against this heroic Raksasas that is mounted on a steed; and speedily deprive of life that one who is devouring up the ranks of his foes.
— M.N. Dutt (1891–94, public domain)
स भर्तुर्वचनं श्रुत्वा निष्पपाताङ्गदस्तदा। अनीकान्मेघसंकाशादंशुमानिव वीर्यवान्॥
sa bharturvacanaṃ śrutvā niṣpapātāṅgadastadā| anīkānmeghasaṃkāśādaṃśumāniva vīryavān||
Hearing his master's speech, Angada descended from that host resembling clouds, like the powerful Sun himself.
— M.N. Dutt (1891–94, public domain)
शैलसंघातसंकाशो हरीणामुत्तमोऽङ्गदः। रराजाङ्गदसंनद्धः स धातुरिव पर्वतः॥
śailasaṃghātasaṃkāśo harīṇāmuttamo'ṅgadaḥ| rarājāṅgadasaṃnaddhaḥ sa dhāturiva parvataḥ||
And resembling a mass of crags, Angada-foremost of monkeys, Adorned with Angadas, appeared beautiful like a mountain with metals on it.
— M.N. Dutt (1891–94, public domain)
निरायुधो महातेजाः केवलं नखदंष्ट्रवान्। नरान्तकमभिक्रम्य वालिपुत्रोऽब्रवीद्वचः॥
nirāyudho mahātejāḥ kevalaṃ nakhadaṃṣṭravān| narāntakamabhikramya vāliputro'bravīdvacaḥ||
And weaponless himself, and furnished only with nails and teeth, Vali's son attacking Narāntaka, said.
— M.N. Dutt (1891–94, public domain)
तिष्ठ किं प्राकृतैरेभिर्हरिभिस्त्वं करिष्यसि। अस्मिन्वज्रसमस्पर्श प्रासं क्षिप ममोरसि॥
tiṣṭha kiṃ prākṛtairebhirharibhistvaṃ kariṣyasi| asminvajrasamasparśa prāsaṃ kṣipa mamorasi||
Stay! What shall you do with these inferior monkeys? This prasa, having the feel of the thunder-bolt, do you hurl at my heart itself.
— M.N. Dutt (1891–94, public domain)
अङ्गदस्य वचः श्रुत्वा प्रचुक्रोध नरान्तकः। संदश्य दशनैरोष्ठं निःश्वस्य च भुजंगवत्।। अभिगम्याङ्गदं क्रुद्धो वालिपुत्रं नरान्तकः॥
aṅgadasya vacaḥ śrutvā pracukrodha narāntakaḥ| saṃdaśya daśanairoṣṭhaṃ niḥśvasya ca bhujaṃgavat|| abhigamyāṅgadaṃ kruddho vāliputraṃ narāntakaḥ||
Hearing Angada's words, Narāntaka was fired with wrath. And knawing his upper lip with his teeth and sighing like a serpent, Narāntaka, wrought with wrath, approached Vali's son.
— M.N. Dutt (1891–94, public domain)
स प्रासमाविध्य तदाङ्गदाय समुज्ज्वलन्तं सहसोत्ससर्ज। स वालिपुत्रोरसि वज्रकल्पे बभूव भग्नो न्यपतच्च भूमौ ॥
sa prāsamāvidhya tadāṅgadāya samujjvalantaṃ sahasotsasarja| sa vāliputrorasi vajrakalpe babhūva bhagno nyapatacca bhūmau ||
Then whirling his praśa, he suddenly discharged that flaming (weapon) against Argada. And then it was snapped on the breast of Vali's son, resembling the thunder-bolt, and dropped to the earth.
— M.N. Dutt (1891–94, public domain)
तं प्रासमालोक्य तदा विभग्नं सुपर्णकृत्तोरगवीर्यकल्पम्। स्तुरंगमस्याभिजघान मूर्धि॥
taṃ prāsamālokya tadā vibhagnaṃ suparṇakṛttoragavīryakalpam| sturaṃgamasyābhijaghāna mūrdhi||
Seeing the praśa broken in pieces, like a powerful snake severed by Suparna, Vāli's son, raising his hand, dealt a slap at the head of his (Narāntaka's) steed.
— M.N. Dutt (1891–94, public domain)
निमग्नपादः स्फुटिताक्षितारो निष्क्रान्तजिह्वोऽचलसंनिकाशः। स तस्य वाजी निपपात भूमौ तलप्रहारेण विकीर्णमूर्धा १०॥
nimagnapādaḥ sphuṭitākṣitāro niṣkrāntajihvo'calasaṃnikāśaḥ| sa tasya vājī nipapāta bhūmau talaprahāreṇa vikīrṇamūrdhā 10||
Thereat, with his legs sinking down and his eye-balls coming off and his tongue hanging down, and wearing the look of a mountain, on being smite with that slap, Narāntaka's steed fell down to the ground, with its head lying at random.
— M.N. Dutt (1891–94, public domain)
नरान्तकः क्रोधवशं जगाम हतं तुरंगं पतितं समीक्ष्य। स मुष्टिमुद्यम्य महाप्रभावो जघान शीर्षे युधि वालिपुत्रम्॥
narāntakaḥ krodhavaśaṃ jagāma hataṃ turaṃgaṃ patitaṃ samīkṣya| sa muṣṭimudyamya mahāprabhāvo jaghāna śīrṣe yudhi vāliputram||
Narāntaka seeing his charger slain and fallen, was seized with a furious wrath, and raising his clenched fist, that one endowed with exceeding great energy in that conflict hit Vāll's son on the head.
— M.N. Dutt (1891–94, public domain)
अथाङ्गदो मुष्टिविशीर्णमूर्धा सुस्राव तीव्र रुधिरं भृशोष्णम्। मुहुर्विजज्वाल मुमोह चापि संज्ञां समासाद्य विसिष्मिये च॥
athāṅgado muṣṭiviśīrṇamūrdhā susrāva tīvra rudhiraṃ bhṛśoṣṇam| muhurvijajvāla mumoha cāpi saṃjñāṃ samāsādya visiṣmiye ca||
Thereat Angada having his head wounded by that blow, warm blood gushed out plentifully. And momentarily burning and momentarily swooning he, regaining his senses, was amazed.
— M.N. Dutt (1891–94, public domain)
अथाङ्गदो मृत्युसमानवेगं संवर्त्य मुष्टिं गिरिशृङ्गकल्पम्। निपातयामास तदा महात्मा नसन्तकस्योरसि वालिपुत्रः॥
athāṅgado mṛtyusamānavegaṃ saṃvartya muṣṭiṃ giriśṛṅgakalpam| nipātayāmāsa tadā mahātmā nasantakasyorasi vāliputraḥ||
Then Vāli's son, the high-souled Angada clenching his fist into a blow resembling Death itself in energy, and like to a mountain-peak, let it descend on the chest of Narāntaka.
— M.N. Dutt (1891–94, public domain)
स मुष्टिनिर्भिननिमग्नवक्षा ज्वाला वमशोणितदिग्धगात्रः। नरान्तको भूमितले पपात यथाचलो वज्रनिपातभग्नः॥
sa muṣṭinirbhinanimagnavakṣā jvālā vamaśoṇitadigdhagātraḥ| narāntako bhūmitale papāta yathācalo vajranipātabhagnaḥ||
Thereat, with his breast riven and broken down, vomiting flames and having his body bathed in blood, Narāntaka dropped down to the earth, like a hill shattered by the impetus of the thunder-bolt.
— M.N. Dutt (1891–94, public domain)
तदान्तरिक्षे त्रिदशोत्तमानां वनौकसां चैव महाप्रणादः।। बभूव तस्मिनिहतेऽग्र्यवीर्ये नरान्तके वालिसुतेन संख्ये॥
tadāntarikṣe tridaśottamānāṃ vanaukasāṃ caiva mahāpraṇādaḥ|| babhūva tasminihate'gryavīrye narāntake vālisutena saṃkhye||
On Narāntaka of exceeding prowess having been slain by Vali's son in battle, there arose a tremendous uproar in the firmament from the wood-rangers and the foremost of celestials.
— M.N. Dutt (1891–94, public domain)
अथाङ्गदो राममनः प्रहर्षणं सुदुष्करं तं कृतवान्हि विक्रमम्। विसिष्मिये सोऽप्यथ भीमकर्मा पुनश्च युद्धे स बभूव हर्षितः॥
athāṅgado rāmamanaḥ praharṣaṇaṃ suduṣkaraṃ taṃ kṛtavānhi vikramam| visiṣmiye so'pyatha bhīmakarmā punaśca yuddhe sa babhūva harṣitaḥ||
Angada having performed that difficult deed of prowess, capable of delighting the mind of Rāma, was seized with amazement;* and that one of terrific feats in fight was again inspired with delight in the encounter. * Probably, at his own prowess.
— M.N. Dutt (1891–94, public domain)
