ਭੁਜੰਗ ਪ੍ਰਯਾਤ ਛੰਦ ॥

BHUJANG PRAYAAT STANZA

The sword which she has struck in ire

It hath hlistened like lightning in the month of Bhadon.

The jingling sound of bows appears like the sound of flowing stream.

And the steel-weapons have been struck in great anger, which appear unique and frightening.7.84.

The sound of drums rises in the battle and the warriors glisten their weapons.

There is a great rush of blows and the men of endurance are experiencing shocks.

The vultures shriek and the clarionets are being played.

It appears that terrible tigers are roaring and roaming.8.85.

On the other side the demon warrior Rkat Beej was infuriated.

He shot his arrows very dexterously.

The goddess then speedily struck her sword.

Which cused the demon to fall senseless, it seemed that he has passed away.9.86.

When he came to senses, the mighty hero roared.

For four gharis, the steel clasged with steel.

With the infliction of the arrow of the goddess, the blood of Rakat Beej began to fall on the ground.

With innumerable drops of blood arose innumerable Rakat Beejas, who began to shout with rage.10.87

All the warriors who arose, were destroyed by Kali.

Somewhere their shields, armour and wounded bodies are lying scattered

With all the drops of blood that fall on the ground.

The same number of warriors arise shouting “kill, kill”. 11.88.

There were struck blows after blows and the warriors being chopped are rolling in dust.

Their heads, faces and pieces of flesh are lying scattered.

For four hundred kos, the battlefield was occupied by warriors.

Most of whom are lying dead or senseless.12.89.
