When even the sage Vasiṣṭha would not give up the wish-fulfilling cow (Kāmadhenu), then Viśvāmitra, O Rāma, forcibly seized his cow Śabalā.
नीयमाना तु शबला राम राज्ञा महात्मना ।
दुःखिता चिन्तयामास रुदन्ती शोककर्शिता ॥२॥
दुःखिता चिन्तयामास रुदन्ती शोककर्शिता ॥२॥

duḥkhitā śokakarśitā rudantī cintayāmāsa
duḥkhitā śokakarśitā rudantī cintayāmāsa
2.
But Śabalā, O Rāma, being led away by the magnanimous king, felt distressed and pondered, weeping and overwhelmed by grief.
परित्यक्ता वसिष्ठेन किमहं सुमहात्मना ।
याहं राजभृतैर्दीना ह्रियेयं भृशदुःखिता ॥३॥
याहं राजभृतैर्दीना ह्रियेयं भृशदुःखिता ॥३॥

Why have I been abandoned by the very great-souled Vasiṣṭha, such that I, helpless and deeply distressed, am now being carried off by royal servants?
किं मयापकृतं तस्य महर्षेर्भावितात्मनः ।
यन्मामनागसं भक्तामिष्टां त्यजति धार्मिकः ॥४॥
यन्मामनागसं भक्तामिष्टां त्यजति धार्मिकः ॥४॥

yat dhārmikaḥ mām anāgasam bhaktām iṣṭām tyajati
yat dhārmikaḥ mām anāgasam bhaktām iṣṭām tyajati
4.
What wrong have I done to that great sage (maharṣi), whose soul (ātman) is so pure, that he, a righteous person (dhārmika), abandons me, who am innocent, devoted, and beloved?
इति सा चिन्तयित्वा तु निःश्वस्य च पुनः पुनः ।
जगाम वेगेन तदा वसिष्ठं परमौजसं ॥५॥
जगाम वेगेन तदा वसिष्ठं परमौजसं ॥५॥
5. iti sā cintayitvā tu niḥśvasya ca punaḥ punaḥ ,

5.
iti sā cintayitvā punaḥ punaḥ ca niḥśvasya
tadā vegena paramaujasam vasiṣṭham jagāma
tadā vegena paramaujasam vasiṣṭham jagāma
5.
Having thus pondered and sighed repeatedly, she then swiftly went to Vasiṣṭha, the supremely mighty sage.
निर्धूय तांस्तदा भृत्याञ् शतशः शत्रुसूदन ।
जगामानिलवेगेन पादमूलं महात्मनः ॥६॥
जगामानिलवेगेन पादमूलं महात्मनः ॥६॥

anila-vegena mahātmanaḥ pāda-mūlam jagāma
tadā tān bhṛtyān śataśaḥ nirdhūya,
anila-vegena mahātmanaḥ pāda-mūlam jagāma
6.
Having then shaken off those hundreds of servants, O slayer of foes, she went with the speed of the wind to the presence (literally, 'foot-base') of the great-souled one.
शबला सा रुदन्ती च क्रोशन्ती चेदमब्रवीत् ।
वसिष्ठस्याग्रतः स्थित्वा मेघदुन्दुभिराविणी ॥७॥
वसिष्ठस्याग्रतः स्थित्वा मेघदुन्दुभिराविणी ॥७॥

vasiṣṭhasya agrataḥ sthitvā idam abravīt
7.
And weeping and lamenting, Sabala, standing before Vasiṣṭha with a voice like a thundercloud or a drum, said this.
भगवन् किं परित्यक्ता त्वयाहं ब्रह्मणः सुत ।
यस्माद् राजभृता मां हि नयन्ते त्वत्सकाशतः ॥८॥
यस्माद् राजभृता मां हि नयन्ते त्वत्सकाशतः ॥८॥
8. bhagavan kiṃ parityaktā tvayāhaṃ brahmaṇaḥ suta ,

yasmāt rājabhṛtāḥ mām hi nayante tvatsakāśataḥ
yasmāt rājabhṛtāḥ mām hi nayante tvatsakāśataḥ
8.

yasmāt hi rājabhṛtāḥ tvatsakāśataḥ mām nayante
yasmāt hi rājabhṛtāḥ tvatsakāśataḥ mām nayante
8.
O revered one, son of Brahmā, why have I been abandoned by you? Because, look, the king's servants are indeed taking me away from your presence.
एवमुक्तस्तु ब्रह्मर्षिरिदं वचनमब्रवीत् ।
शोकसंतप्तहृदयां स्वसारमिव दुःखिताम् ॥९॥
शोकसंतप्तहृदयां स्वसारमिव दुःखिताम् ॥९॥

duḥkhitām svasāram iva idam vacanam abravīt
duḥkhitām svasāram iva idam vacanam abravīt
9.
But the Brahmarshi, thus addressed, spoke these words to her, whose heart was tormented by grief, as if she were his own distressed sister.
न त्वां त्यजामि शबले नापि मे ऽपकृतं त्वया ।
एष त्वां नयते राजा बलान्मत्तो महाबलः ॥१०॥
एष त्वां नयते राजा बलान्मत्तो महाबलः ॥१०॥
10. na tvāṃ tyajāmi śabale nāpi me'pakṛtaṃ tvayā ,
eṣa tvāṃ nayate rājā balānmatto mahābalaḥ.
eṣa tvāṃ nayate rājā balānmatto mahābalaḥ.
10.
na tvām tyajāmi śabale na api me apakṛtam tvayā
eṣaḥ tvām nayate rājā balāt mattaḥ mahābalaḥ
eṣaḥ tvām nayate rājā balāt mattaḥ mahābalaḥ
10.
śabale aham tvām na tyajāmi tvayā me api na apakṛtam
eṣaḥ mahābalaḥ rājā tvām mattaḥ balāt nayate
eṣaḥ mahābalaḥ rājā tvām mattaḥ balāt nayate
10.
I am not abandoning you, O Sabala, nor have you done any wrong to me. This exceedingly powerful king is taking you away from me by force.
न हि तुल्यं बलं मह्यं राजा त्वद्य विशेषतः ।
बली राजा क्षत्रियश्च पृथिव्याः पतिरेव च ॥११॥
बली राजा क्षत्रियश्च पृथिव्याः पतिरेव च ॥११॥
11. na hi tulyaṃ balaṃ mahyaṃ rājā tvadya viśeṣataḥ ,
balī rājā kṣatriyaśca pṛthivyāḥ patireva ca.
balī rājā kṣatriyaśca pṛthivyāḥ patireva ca.
11.
na hi tulyam balam mahyam rājā tu adya viśeṣataḥ
balī rājā kṣatriyaḥ ca pṛthivyāḥ patiḥ eva ca
balī rājā kṣatriyaḥ ca pṛthivyāḥ patiḥ eva ca
11.
hi na mahyam balam tulyam (asti),
rājā tu adya viśeṣataḥ.

rājā tu adya viśeṣataḥ.
rājā balī ca kṣatriyaḥ ca pṛthivyāḥ patiḥ eva ca (asti).
11.
Indeed, the king's strength is not equal to mine, especially now. The king is powerful, a warrior, and truly the lord of the earth.
इयमक्षौहिणीपूर्णा सवाजिरथसंकुला ।
हस्तिध्वजसमाकीर्णा तेनासौ बलवत्तरः ॥१२॥
हस्तिध्वजसमाकीर्णा तेनासौ बलवत्तरः ॥१२॥
12. iyamakṣauhiṇīpūrṇā savājirathasaṃkulā ,

hastidhvajasamākīrṇā tena asau balavattaraḥ
12.
iyam akṣauhiṇīpūrṇā savājirathasaṅkulā hastidhvajasamākīrṇā (asti).
tena asau balavattaraḥ (asti).
tena asau balavattaraḥ (asti).
12.
This army, filled with an akṣauhiṇī (a large division of troops), is crowded with horses and chariots, and covered with elephants and banners. Because of this, he (the king) is stronger.
एवमुक्ता वसिष्ठेन प्रत्युवाच विनीतवत् ।
वचनं वचनज्ञा सा ब्रह्मर्षिममितप्रभम् ॥१३॥
वचनं वचनज्ञा सा ब्रह्मर्षिममितप्रभम् ॥१३॥
13. evamuktā vasiṣṭhena pratyuvāca vinītavat ,

13.
vasiṣṭhena evam uktā sā vacanajñā vinītavat brahmarṣim amitaprabham vacanam pratyuvāca.
13.
Thus addressed by Vasiṣṭha, she, being eloquent, humbly replied to the Brahmarṣi of immeasurable splendor.
न बलं क्षत्रियस्याहुर्ब्राह्मणो बलवत्तरः ।
ब्रह्मन्ब्रह्मबलं दिव्यं क्षत्रात्तु बलवत्तरम् ॥१४॥
ब्रह्मन्ब्रह्मबलं दिव्यं क्षत्रात्तु बलवत्तरम् ॥१४॥
14. na balaṃ kṣatriyasyāhurbrāhmaṇo balavattaraḥ ,
brahmanbrahmabalaṃ divyaṃ kṣatrāttu balavattaram.
brahmanbrahmabalaṃ divyaṃ kṣatrāttu balavattaram.
14.
na balam kṣatriyasya āhuḥ brāhmaṇaḥ balavattaraḥ
brahman brahmabalam divyam kṣatrāt tu balavattaram
brahman brahmabalam divyam kṣatrāt tu balavattaram
14.
kṣatriyasya balam na āhuḥ,
brāhmaṇaḥ balavattaraḥ (asti).
brahman,
divyam brahmabalam tu kṣatrāt balavattaram (asti).
brāhmaṇaḥ balavattaraḥ (asti).
brahman,
divyam brahmabalam tu kṣatrāt balavattaram (asti).
14.
They do not declare the power of a warrior to be truly strong; a Brahmin is more powerful. O Brahmin, spiritual power (brahmabalam) is divine and indeed stronger than temporal power (kṣatra).
अप्रमेयबलं तुभ्यं न त्वया बलवत्तरः ।
विश्वामित्रो महावीर्यस्तेजस्तव दुरासदम् ॥१५॥
विश्वामित्रो महावीर्यस्तेजस्तव दुरासदम् ॥१५॥
15. aprameyabalaṃ tubhyaṃ na tvayā balavattaraḥ ,

15.

15.
tubhyam aprameyabalam tvayā balavattaraḥ na
viśvāmitraḥ mahāvīryaḥ tava tejaḥ durāsadam
viśvāmitraḥ mahāvīryaḥ tava tejaḥ durāsadam
15.
Your strength is immeasurable, and no one is stronger than you. Even the greatly valorous Viśvāmitra finds your splendor unassailable.
नियुङ्क्ष्व मां महातेजस्त्वद्ब्रह्मबलसंभृताम् ।
तस्य दर्पं बलं यत्तन्नाशयामि दुरात्मनः ॥१६॥
तस्य दर्पं बलं यत्तन्नाशयामि दुरात्मनः ॥१६॥

16.
O greatly radiant one, employ me, who is imbued with the power of your (brahman) spiritual might. Whatever pride and strength that evil-minded one possesses, I shall destroy.
इत्युक्तस्तु तया राम वसिष्ठः सुमहायशाः ।
सृजस्वेति तदोवाच बलं परबलारुजम् ॥१७॥
सृजस्वेति तदोवाच बलं परबलारुजम् ॥१७॥
17. ityuktastu tayā rāma vasiṣṭhaḥ sumahāyaśāḥ ,

17.
rāma tayā iti uktaḥ tu sumahāyaśāḥ vasiṣṭhaḥ
tadā sṛjasva iti parabalarujam balam uvāca
tadā sṛjasva iti parabalarujam balam uvāca
17.
O Rāma, thus addressed by her, the very renowned Vasiṣṭha then said, "Create a force capable of crushing the strength of enemies!"
तस्या हुम्भारवोत्सृष्टाः पह्लवाः शतशो नृप ।
नाशयन्ति बलं सर्वं विश्वामित्रस्य पश्यतः ॥१८॥
नाशयन्ति बलं सर्वं विश्वामित्रस्य पश्यतः ॥१८॥

viśvāmitrasya paśyataḥ sarvam balam nāśayanti
viśvāmitrasya paśyataḥ sarvam balam nāśayanti
18.
O King, the Pahlavas, unleashed by her with hundreds of roars, destroyed Viśvāmitra's entire army as he watched.
स राजा परमक्रुद्धः क्रोधविस्फारितेक्षणः ।
पह्लवान्नाशयामास शस्त्रैरुच्चावचैरपि ॥१९॥
पह्लवान्नाशयामास शस्त्रैरुच्चावचैरपि ॥१९॥

19.
The king, intensely furious and with eyes wide from anger, annihilated the Pahlavas even with various types of weapons.
विश्वामित्रार्दितान्दृष्ट्वा पह्लवाञ् शतशस्तदा ।

20.
Seeing the Pahlavas tormented by Viśvāmitra in hundreds, he then again created fierce Śakas mixed with Yavanas.
तैरासीत् संवृता भूमिः शकैर्यवनमिश्रितैः ।

21.
The earth was covered by those powerful, extremely mighty Śakas, who were mixed with Yavanas and resembled golden filaments.
दीर्घासिपट्टिशधरैर्हेमवर्णाम्बरावृतैः ।
निर्दग्धं तद्बलं सर्वं प्रदीप्तैरिव पावकैः ॥२२॥

22.
That entire army was completely consumed, as if by blazing fires, by those (warriors) who bore long swords and javelins and were covered in golden-colored garments.
