34. Then a Sharabha, an eight-footed creature with upraised limbs, a forest-dweller, came to that sage's dwelling to kill that lion.
तं मुनिः शरभं चक्रे बलोत्कटमरिंदम ।
ततः स शरभो वन्यो मुनेः शरभमग्रतः ।
दृष्ट्वा बलिनमत्युग्रं द्रुतं संप्राद्रवद्भयात् ॥३५॥

35. muniḥ tam balotkaṭam arimdamam śarabham cakre.
tataḥ saḥ vanyaḥ śarabhaḥ muneḥ agrataḥ balinam atyugram śarabham dṛṣṭvā bhayāt drutam samprādravat
35. The sage then created an extremely powerful Sharabha, a subduer of enemies. Thereupon, the wild Sharabha (that had come), seeing the sage's newly created Sharabha before it - who was mighty and exceedingly fierce - quickly fled in fear.
स एवं शरभस्थाने न्यस्तो वै मुनिना तदा ।
मुनेः पार्श्वगतो नित्यं शारभ्यं सुखमाप्तवान् ॥३६॥
36. sa evaṁ śarabhasthāne nyasto vai muninā tadā ,

36. sa tadā muninā evam śarabha-sthāne nyastaḥ vai
muneḥ pārśva-gataḥ nityam śārabhyam sukham āptavān
36. He, having been thus placed in the position of a śarabha by the sage at that time, constantly accompanying the sage, experienced the comfort inherent to a śarabha.
ततः शरभसंत्रस्ताः सर्वे मृगगणा वनात् ।
दिशः संप्राद्रवन्राजन्भयाज्जीवितकाङ्क्षिणः ॥३७॥
37. tataḥ śarabhasaṁtrastāḥ sarve mṛgagaṇā vanāt ,

37. tataḥ rājan śarabha-santrastāḥ jīvita-kāṅkṣiṇaḥ

37. Then, O King, all the animal herds, terrified by the śarabha, and desiring to live, fled from the forest in all directions out of fear.
शरभोऽप्यतिसंदुष्टो नित्यं प्राणिवधे रतः ।
फलमूलाशनं शान्तं नैच्छत्स पिशिताशनः ॥३८॥
38. śarabho'pyatisaṁduṣṭo nityaṁ prāṇivadhe rataḥ ,

38. śarabhaḥ api ati-sanduṣṭaḥ nityam prāṇi-vadhe rataḥ

38. śarabhaḥ api ati-sanduṣṭaḥ nityam prāṇi-vadhe rataḥ

38. The śarabha, being extremely wicked and constantly engrossed in the killing of creatures, did not desire a peaceful diet of fruits and roots, as he was a flesh-eater.
ततो रुधिरतर्षेण बलिना शरभोऽन्वितः ।
इयेष तं मुनिं हन्तुमकृतज्ञः श्वयोनिजः ॥३९॥
39. tato rudhiratarṣeṇa balinā śarabho'nvitaḥ ,

39. tataḥ rudhira-tarṣeṇa balinā śarabhaḥ anvitaḥ

39. tataḥ balinā rudhira-tarṣeṇa anvitaḥ akṛtajñaḥ
śva-yonijaḥ śarabhaḥ tam munim hantum iyeṣa
39. Then, the śarabha, powerful and overcome by a thirst for blood, desired to kill that sage, for he was ungrateful and of canine birth.
ततस्तेन तपःशक्त्या विदितो ज्ञानचक्षुषा ।
विज्ञाय च महाप्राज्ञो मुनिः श्वानं तमुक्तवान् ॥४०॥
40. tatastena tapaḥśaktyā vidito jñānacakṣuṣā ,

40. tataḥ tena tapaḥśaktyā viditaḥ jñānacakṣuṣā

40. tataḥ tena tapaḥśaktyā jñānacakṣuṣā viditaḥ ca
mahāprājñaḥ muniḥ tam śvānam vijñāya uktavān
40. Then, that greatly wise sage, having known (the truth) through the power of his asceticism (tapas) and with his eye of knowledge, spoke to that dog.
श्वा त्वं द्वीपित्वमापन्नो द्वीपी व्याघ्रत्वमागतः ।
व्याघ्रो नागो मदपटुर्नागः सिंहत्वमाप्तवान् ॥४१॥
41. śvā tvaṁ dvīpitvamāpanno dvīpī vyāghratvamāgataḥ ,
vyāghro nāgo madapaṭurnāgaḥ siṁhatvamāptavān.
41. śvā tvam dvīpitvam āpannaḥ dvīpī vyāghratvam āgataḥ
vyāghraḥ nāgaḥ madapaṭuḥ nāgaḥ siṃhatvam āptavān
41. tvam śvā dvīpitvam āpannaḥ dvīpī vyāghratvam āgataḥ
vyāghraḥ madapaṭuḥ nāgaḥ nāgaḥ siṃhatvam āptavān
41. You, (who are now) a dog, attained the state of a leopard; that leopard became a tiger; that tiger became an elephant powerful in rut; and that elephant then obtained the state of a lion.
सिंहोऽतिबलसंयुक्तो भूयः शरभतां गतः ।
मया स्नेहपरीतेन न विमृष्टः कुलान्वयः ॥४२॥
42. siṁho'tibalasaṁyukto bhūyaḥ śarabhatāṁ gataḥ ,
mayā snehaparītena na vimṛṣṭaḥ kulānvayaḥ.
42. siṃhaḥ atibalasaṃyuktaḥ bhūyaḥ śarabhātām
gataḥ mayā snehaparītena na vimṛṣṭaḥ kulānvayaḥ
42. atibalasaṃyuktaḥ siṃhaḥ bhūyaḥ śarabhātām
gataḥ mayā snehaparītena kulānvayaḥ na vimṛṣṭaḥ
42. The lion, endowed with immense strength, then became a Śarabha (mythical beast). However, out of affection, I did not investigate your lineage (kulānvaya).
यस्मादेवमपापं मां पाप हिंसितुमिच्छसि ।
तस्मात्स्वयोनिमापन्नः श्वैव त्वं हि भविष्यसि ॥४३॥
43. yasmādevamapāpaṁ māṁ pāpa hiṁsitumicchasi ,
tasmātsvayonimāpannaḥ śvaiva tvaṁ hi bhaviṣyasi.
43. yasmāt evam apāpam mām pāpa hiṃsitum icchasi
tasmāt svayonim āpannaḥ śvā eva tvam hi bhaviṣyasi
43. yasmāt he pāpa,
tvam evam apāpam mām hiṃsitum icchasi,
tasmāt tvam svayonim āpannaḥ śvā eva hi bhaviṣyasi
43. Since you, O sinful one (pāpa), thus wish to harm me, who am blameless (apāpam), therefore, you shall certainly return to your original species (svayoni) and be a dog (śvā) again.
ततो मुनिजनद्वेषाद्दुष्टात्मा श्वाकृतोऽबुधः ।
ऋषिणा शरभः शप्तः स्वं रूपं पुनराप्तवान् ॥४४॥
44. tato munijanadveṣādduṣṭātmā śvākṛto'budhaḥ ,
ṛṣiṇā śarabhaḥ śaptaḥ svaṁ rūpaṁ punarāptavān.
44. tataḥ munijanadveṣāt duṣṭātmā śvākṛtaḥ abudhaḥ
ṛṣiṇā śarabhaḥ śaptaḥ svam rūpam punar āptavān
44. tataḥ munijanadveṣāt duṣṭātmā abudhaḥ śarabhaḥ
ṛṣiṇā śaptaḥ śvākṛtaḥ svam rūpam punar āptavān
44. Then, Sharabha, the wicked-minded and foolish one, who had been transformed into a dog by a sage's curse due to his hatred for ascetics, regained his own form.
