ਸ੍ਵੈਯਾ ॥

SWAYYA

Listening to the words of their king, all the warriors together took this decision.

That with firm determination in the mind, the goddess be attacked from all the four directions.

With swords in their hands, and uttering loud shouts of “Kill, Kill”, the army of demons swarmed from all directions.

They all besieged Chandi from all the four sides, like the moon encircled amongst clouds.40.

Scanning the army of Mahishasura, Chandika caught hold of her fierce bow.

With anger, she waged the terrible war by showering the rain of her innumerable shafts.

By chopping the forces of the enemy, such a great quantity of blood fell on the ground.

As though the Lord-God hath created the eighth ocean alongwith already created seven oceans.41.
