69. ekena antakakalpena prāsena ādityatejasā
bhinnāni harisainyāni nipetuḥ dharaṇītale
69. ekena antakakalpena ādityatejasā prāsena bhinnāni harisainyāni dharaṇītale nipetuḥ.
69. Pierced by a single spear, which was as formidable as death (antaka) itself and radiant like the sun, the monkey armies fell shattered to the ground.
वज्रनिष्पेषसदृशं प्रासस्याभिनिपातनम् ।
न शेकुर्वानराः सोढुं ते विनेदुर्महास्वनम् ॥७०॥
70. vajraniṣpeṣasadṛśaṃ prāsasyābhinipātanam ,
na śekurvānarāḥ soḍhuṃ te vinedurmahāsvanam.
70. vajraniṣpeṣasadṛśam prāsasya abhinipātanam na
śekuḥ vānarāḥ soḍhum te vineduḥ mahāsvanam
70. vānarāḥ vajraniṣpeṣasadṛśam prāsasya abhinipātanam soḍhum na śekuḥ.
te mahāsvanam vineduḥ.
70. The monkeys could not endure the spear's impact, which was like the crushing force of a thunderbolt. They cried out with a mighty roar.
पततां हरिवीराणां रूपाणि प्रचकाशिरे ।
वज्रभिन्नाग्रकूटानां शैलानां पततामिव ॥७१॥
71. patatāṃ harivīrāṇāṃ rūpāṇi pracakāśire ,
vajrabhinnāgrakūṭānāṃ śailānāṃ patatāmiva.
71. patatām harivīrāṇām rūpāṇi pracakāśire
vajrabhinnāgrakūṭānām śailānām patatām iva
71. harivīrāṇām patatām rūpāṇi pracakāśire
śailānām vajrabhinnāgrakūṭānām patatām iva
71. The forms of the falling monkey warriors shone brightly, like crashing mountains whose topmost peaks have been shattered by a thunderbolt.
ये तु पूर्वं महात्मानः कुम्भकर्णेन पातिताः ।
ते ऽस्वस्था वानरश्रेष्ठाः सुग्रीवमुपतस्थिरे ॥७२॥
72. ye tu pūrvaṃ mahātmānaḥ kumbhakarṇena pātitāḥ ,
te'svasthā vānaraśreṣṭhāḥ sugrīvamupatasthire.
72. ye tu pūrvam mahātmānaḥ kumbhakarṇena pātitāḥ
te asvasthāḥ vānarśreṣṭhāḥ sugrīvam upatastire
72. tu ye mahātmānaḥ vānarśreṣṭhāḥ pūrvam kumbhakarṇena
pātitāḥ te asvasthāḥ sugrīvam upatastire
72. However, those great-souled, chief monkey warriors, who had previously been struck down by Kumbhakarna, approached Sugriva while still feeling unwell.
विप्रेक्षमाणः सुग्रीवो ददर्श हरिवाहिनीम् ।
नरान्तकभयत्रस्तां विद्रवन्तीमितस्ततः ॥७३॥
73. viprekṣamāṇaḥ sugrīvo dadarśa harivāhinīm ,
narāntakabhayatrastāṃ vidravantīmitastataḥ.
73. viprekṣamāṇaḥ sugrīvaḥ dadarśa harivāhinīm
narāntakabhayatrastām vidravantīm itas tataḥ
73. sugrīvaḥ viprekṣamāṇaḥ harivāhinīm
narāntakabhayatrastām vidravantīm itas tataḥ dadarśa
73. Sugriva, observing carefully, saw the monkey army, terrified by Narantaka, fleeing here and there.
विद्रुतां वाहिनीं दृष्ट्वा स ददर्श नरान्तकम् ।
गृहीतप्रासमायान्तं हयपृष्ठे प्रतिष्ठितम् ॥७४॥
74. vidrutāṃ vāhinīṃ dṛṣṭvā sa dadarśa narāntakam ,
gṛhītaprāsamāyāntaṃ hayapṛṣṭhe pratiṣṭhitam.
74. vidrutām vāhinīm dṛṣṭvā sa dadarśa narāntakam
gṛhītaprāsam āyāntam hayapṛṣṭhe pratiṣṭhitam
74. sa vidrutām vāhinīm dṛṣṭvā narāntakam gṛhītaprāsam
āyāntam hayapṛṣṭhe pratiṣṭhitam dadarśa
74. After seeing the scattered army, he (Sugriva) observed Narantaka approaching, spear in hand, mounted on a horse.
अथोवाच महातेजाः सुग्रीवो वानराधिपः ।
कुमारमङ्गदं वीरं शक्रतुल्यपराक्रमम् ॥७५॥
75. athovāca mahātejāḥ sugrīvo vānarādhipaḥ ,
kumāramaṅgadaṃ vīraṃ śakratulyaparākramam.
75. atha uvāca mahātejāḥ sugrīvaḥ vānarādhipaḥ
kumāram aṅgadam vīram śakratulyaparākramam
75. atha mahātejāḥ vānarādhipaḥ sugrīvaḥ
śakratulyaparākramam vīram kumāram aṅgadam uvāca
75. Then, the greatly mighty Sugriva, king of the monkeys, spoke to the heroic young Angada, whose valor was equal to Indra.
गच्छैनं राक्षसं वीर यो ऽसौ तुरगमास्थितः ।
क्षोभयन्तं हरिबलं क्षिप्रं प्राणैर्वियोजय ॥७६॥
76. gacchainaṃ rākṣasaṃ vīra yo'sau turagamāsthitaḥ ,
kṣobhayantaṃ haribalaṃ kṣipraṃ prāṇairviyojaya.
76. gaccha enam rākṣasam vīra yaḥ asau turagam āsthitaḥ
kṣobhayantam haribalam kṣipram prāṇaiḥ viyojaya
76. vīra gaccha enam rākṣasam yaḥ asau turagam āsthitaḥ haribalam kṣobhayantam,
kṣipram prāṇaiḥ viyojaya
76. "Go, O hero (vīra), quickly separate this demon from his life (prāṇa), that one who is seated on a horse and is agitating the monkey army."
स भर्तुर्वचनं श्रुत्वा निष्पपाताङ्गदस्तदा ।
अनीकान्मेघसंकाशान्मेघानीकादिवांशुमान् ॥७७॥
77. sa bharturvacanaṃ śrutvā niṣpapātāṅgadastadā ,
anīkānmeghasaṃkāśānmeghānīkādivāṃśumān.
77. saḥ bhartuḥ vacanam śrutvā niṣpapāta aṅgadaḥ
tadā anīkāt meghasaṃkāśān meghānīkāt iva aṃśumān
77. tadā saḥ aṅgadaḥ bhartuḥ vacanam śrutvā,
anīkāt meghasaṃkāśān meghānīkāt iva aṃśumān niṣpapāta
77. Then, Angada, having heard his master's command, sprang forth from the army – its warriors appearing like clouds – just as the sun (aṃśumān) emerges from a mass of clouds.
शैलसंघातसंकाशो हरीणामुत्तमो ऽङ्गदः ।
रराजाङ्गदसंनद्धः सधातुरिव पर्वतः ॥७८॥
78. śailasaṃghātasaṃkāśo harīṇāmuttamo'ṅgadaḥ ,
rarājāṅgadasaṃnaddhaḥ sadhāturiva parvataḥ.
78. śailasaṃghātasaṃkāśaḥ harīṇām uttamaḥ aṅgadaḥ
rarāja aṅgadasannaddhaḥ sadhātuḥ iva parvataḥ
78. harīṇām uttamaḥ śailasaṃghātasaṃkāśaḥ aṅgadaḥ,
aṅgadasannaddhaḥ sadhātuḥ parvataḥ iva rarāja
78. Angada, the foremost among the monkeys, who resembled a mass of mountains, shone splendidly, like a mountain adorned with minerals.
निरायुधो महातेजाः केवलं नखदंष्ट्रवान् ।
नरान्तकमभिक्रम्य वालिपुत्रो ऽब्रवीद्वचः ॥७९॥
79. nirāyudho mahātejāḥ kevalaṃ nakhadaṃṣṭravān ,
narāntakamabhikramya vāliputro'bravīdvacaḥ.
79. nirāyudhaḥ mahātejāḥ kevalam nakhadaṃṣṭravān
narāntakam abhikramya vāliputraḥ abravīt vacaḥ
79. vāliputraḥ nirāyudhaḥ mahātejāḥ kevalam
nakhadaṃṣṭravān narāntakam abhikramya vacaḥ abravīt
79. The son of Vāli (Angada), though unarmed, possessed immense power and only his claws and fangs. He approached Narāntaka and spoke these words.
तिष्ठ किं प्राकृतैरेभिर्हरिभिस्त्वं करिष्यसि ।
अस्मिन् वज्रसमस्पर्शे प्रासं क्षिप ममोरसि ॥८०॥
80. tiṣṭha kiṃ prākṛtairebhirharibhistvaṃ kariṣyasi ,
asmin vajrasamasparśe prāsaṃ kṣipa mamorasi.
80. tiṣṭha kim prākṛtaiḥ ebhiḥ haribhiḥ tvam kariṣyasi
asmin vajrasamasparśe prāsam kṣipa mama urasi
80. tvam tiṣṭha kim ebhiḥ prākṛtaiḥ haribhiḥ kariṣyasi
asmin vajrasamasparśe mama urasi prāsam kṣipa
80. "Stop! What will you do with these ordinary monkeys? Throw your javelin onto my chest, which is as hard as a thunderbolt."
अङ्गदस्य वचः श्रुत्वा प्रचुक्रोध नरान्तकः ।
संदश्य दशनैरोष्ठं निश्वस्य च भुजंगवत् ॥८१॥
81. aṅgadasya vacaḥ śrutvā pracukrodha narāntakaḥ ,
saṃdaśya daśanairoṣṭhaṃ niśvasya ca bhujaṃgavat.
81. aṅgadasya vacaḥ śrutvā pracukrodha narāntakaḥ
saṃdaśya daśanaiḥ oṣṭham niśvasya ca bhujaṃgavat
81. narāntakaḥ aṅgadasya vacaḥ śrutvā daśanaiḥ oṣṭham
saṃdaśya ca bhujaṃgavat niśvasya pracukrodha
81. Hearing Angada's words, Narāntaka became enraged. Biting his lip with his teeth and hissing like a serpent, he (became enraged).
स प्रासमाविध्य तदाङ्गदाय समुज्ज्वलन्तं सहसोत्ससर्ज ।
स वालिपुत्रोरसि वज्रकल्पे बभूव भग्नो न्यपतच्च भूमौ ॥८२॥
82. sa prāsamāvidhya tadāṅgadāya samujjvalantaṃ sahasotsasarja ,
sa vāliputrorasi vajrakalpe babhūva bhagno nyapatacca bhūmau.
82. sa prāsam āvidhya tadā aṅgadāya
samujjvalantam sahasā utsasarja
sa vāliputrourasi vajrakalpe
babhūva bhagnaḥ nyapatat ca bhūmau
82. sa tadā prāsam samujjvalantam
āvidhya aṅgadāya sahasā utsasarja
saḥ vajrakalpe vāliputrourasi
bhagnaḥ babhūva ca bhūmau nyapatat
82. Then, whirling that extremely brilliant javelin, he swiftly threw it at Angada. But it shattered against the chest of Vāli's son, which was like a thunderbolt, and fell to the ground.
तं प्रासमालोक्य तदा विभग्नं सुपर्णकृत्तोरगभोगकल्पम् ।
तलं समुद्यम्य स वालिपुत्रस्तुरंगमस्याभिजघान मूर्ध्नि ॥८३॥
83. taṃ prāsamālokya tadā vibhagnaṃ suparṇakṛttoragabhogakalpam ,
talaṃ samudyamya sa vāliputrasturaṃgamasyābhijaghāna mūrdhni.
83. tam prāsam ālokya tadā vibhagnam
suparṇakṛttoragabhogakalpam
talam samudyamya sa vāliputraḥ
turaṅgamasya abhijaghāna mūrdhni
83. Then, seeing that spear broken like the body of a snake severed by Suparṇa (Garuda), Aṅgada, the son of Vāli, raised his palm and struck the horse on its head.
निमग्नपादः स्फुटिताक्षि तारो निष्क्रान्तजिह्वो ऽचलसंनिकाशः ।
स तस्य वाजी निपपात भूमौ तलप्रहारेण विकीर्णमूर्धा ॥८४॥
84. nimagnapādaḥ sphuṭitākṣi tāro niṣkrāntajihvo'calasaṃnikāśaḥ ,
sa tasya vājī nipapāta bhūmau talaprahāreṇa vikīrṇamūrdhā.
84. nimagnapādaḥ sphuṭitākṣitāraḥ niṣkrāntajihvaḥ acalasannikāśaḥ
saḥ tasya vājī nipapāta bhūmau talaprahāreṇa vikīrṇamūrdhā
84. His horse, with sunken feet, burst eye-pupils, and protruding tongue, fell to the ground like a mountain, its head shattered by the blow of the palm.
नरान्तकः क्रोधवशं जगाम हतं तुरगं पतितं निरीक्ष्य ।
स मुष्टिमुद्यम्य महाप्रभावो जघान शीर्षे युधि वालिपुत्रम् ॥८५॥
85. narāntakaḥ krodhavaśaṃ jagāma hataṃ turagaṃ patitaṃ nirīkṣya ,
sa muṣṭimudyamya mahāprabhāvo jaghāna śīrṣe yudhi vāliputram.
85. narāntakaḥ krodhavaśam jagāma
hatam turagam patitam nirīkṣya
saḥ muṣṭim udyamya mahāprabhāvaḥ
jaghāna śīrṣe yudhi vāliputram
85. Seeing his horse dead and fallen, Narāntaka became overcome with anger. Raising his fist, that mighty warrior struck Aṅgada, the son of Vāli, on the head in battle.
अथाङ्गदो मुष्टिविभिन्नमूर्धा सुस्राव तीव्रं रुधिरं भृशोष्णम् ।
मुहुर्विजज्वाल मुमोह चापि संज्ञां समासाद्य विसिष्मिये च ॥८६॥
86. athāṅgado muṣṭivibhinnamūrdhā susrāva tīvraṃ rudhiraṃ bhṛśoṣṇam ,
muhurvijajvāla mumoha cāpi saṃjñāṃ samāsādya visiṣmiye ca.
86. atha aṅgadaḥ muṣṭivibhinnamūrdhā
susrāva tīvram rudhiram bhṛśoṣṇam
muhuḥ vijajvāla mumoha ca
api saṃjñām samāsādya visismīye ca
86. Then Aṅgada, his head shattered by the fist, profusely bled intense, very hot blood. He repeatedly blazed with fury, fainted, and then, regaining consciousness, he smiled.
अथाङ्गदो वज्रसमानवेगं संवर्त्य मुष्टिं गिरिशृङ्गकल्पम् ।
निपातयामास तदा महात्मा नरान्तकस्योरसि वालिपुत्रः ॥८७॥
87. athāṅgado vajrasamānavegaṃ saṃvartya muṣṭiṃ giriśṛṅgakalpam ,
nipātayāmāsa tadā mahātmā narāntakasyorasi vāliputraḥ.
87. atha aṅgadaḥ vajrasamānavegam saṃvartya muṣṭim giriśṛṅgakalpam
nipātayāmāsa tadā mahātmā narāntakasya urasi vāliputraḥ
87. atha mahātmā vāliputraḥ aṅgadaḥ vajrasamānavegam giriśṛṅgakalpam
muṣṭim saṃvartya tadā narāntakasya urasi nipātayāmāsa
87. Then the great-souled Angada, son of Vali, having gathered his fist, which resembled a mountain peak and possessed the force of a thunderbolt, struck it down upon Narantaka's chest.
स मुष्टिनिष्पिष्टविभिन्नवक्षा ज्वालां वमञ् शोणितदिग्धगात्रः ।
नरान्तको भूमितले पपात यथाचलो वज्रनिपातभग्नः ॥८८॥
88. sa muṣṭiniṣpiṣṭavibhinnavakṣā jvālāṃ vamañ śoṇitadigdhagātraḥ ,
narāntako bhūmitale papāta yathācalo vajranipātabhagnaḥ.
88. saḥ muṣṭiniṣpiṣṭavibhinnavakṣāḥ
jvālām vaman śoṇitadigdhagātraḥ
narāntakaḥ bhūmitale papāta
yathā acalaḥ vajranipātabhagnaḥ
88. saḥ narāntakaḥ muṣṭiniṣpiṣṭavibhinnavakṣāḥ
jvālām vaman
śoṇitadigdhagātraḥ bhūmitale papāta
yathā vajranipātabhagnaḥ acalaḥ
88. Narantaka, whose chest was crushed and split open by the fist, emitting flames and with his body smeared with blood, fell to the ground like a mountain shattered by the strike of a thunderbolt.
अथान्तरिक्षे त्रिदशोत्तमानां वनौकसां चैव महाप्रणादः ।
बभूव तस्मिन्निहते ऽग्र्यवीरे नरान्तके वालिसुतेन संख्ये ॥८९॥
89. athāntarikṣe tridaśottamānāṃ vanaukasāṃ caiva mahāpraṇādaḥ ,
babhūva tasminnihate'gryavīre narāntake vālisutena saṃkhye.
89. atha antarikṣe tridaśottamānām
vanaukasām ca eva mahāpraṇādaḥ
babhūva tasmin nihate agryavīre
narāntake vālisutena saṃkhye
89. atha vālisutena saṃkhye tasmin
nihate agryavīre narāntake
antarikṣe tridaśottamānām ca eva
vanaukasām mahāpraṇādaḥ babhūva
89. Then, when that foremost hero Narantaka was slain in battle by the son of Vali (Angada), a great roar (praṇāda) arose in the sky from the best of the gods and the forest-dwellers (vanaukasa).
अथाङ्गदो राममनः प्रहर्षणं सुदुष्करं तं कृतवान् हि विक्रमम् ।
विसिष्मिये सो ऽप्यतिवीर्य विक्रमः पुनश्च युद्धे स बभूव हर्षितः ॥९०॥
90. athāṅgado rāmamanaḥ praharṣaṇaṃ suduṣkaraṃ taṃ kṛtavān hi vikramam ,
visiṣmiye so'pyativīrya vikramaḥ punaśca yuddhe sa babhūva harṣitaḥ.
90. atha aṅgadaḥ rāmamanahpraharṣaṇam
suduṣkaram tam kṛtavān hi vikramam
visişmiye saḥ api ativīryavikramaḥ
punaḥ ca yuddhe saḥ babhūva harṣitaḥ
90. atha aṅgadaḥ rāmamanahpraharṣaṇam suduṣkaram tam vikramam hi kṛtavān .
saḥ api ativīryavikramaḥ visişmiye .
punaḥ ca saḥ yuddhe harṣitaḥ babhūva .
90. Then Angada indeed performed that very difficult feat of valor, which greatly delighted Rama's mind. Rama, who was of immense valor, was also astonished; and again, he became delighted in battle.
