Now begins the description of the Boar Incarnation:

BHUJANG PRAYAAT STANZA

In this way, the god Vishnu distributed the honey and ambrosia and all gods and demons went away to their places.

Again the enmity grew between both of them and the war was waged in which the gods fled and could not withstand the demons.1.

Hiranayaksha and Hiranayakashipu, both the demon brothers,

Conquered the tresures of the worlds

They ruled over all the places in water and on land

And seeing their own great physical strength, their pride knew no bounds.2.

They wanted that some brave warriors may come forward to fight with them

But only he could march against them, who could be greatly stronger than them.

They climbed to the top of the Sumeru mountain and with the blows of their maces,

They took away the Vedas and the earth forcibly and caused the destruction of all natural principles.3.

They earth went deep into the nether-world

Then Vishnu manifested himself in the form of a Boar of terrible and cruel teeth.

He penetrated into water and raised a thunderous shout,

Which spread equally throughout the universe.4.

Hearing this terrible shout and the resounding of the trumpets, both the brave demons awakened

Listening to their thundering voice, the cowards ran away

The war began and the clattering of the glistening swords and the sound of the furious blows was heard

The luster of the swords looked like the flash of lightning in the month of Bhadon.5.

The warriors of winsome whiskers are shouting and the sounds of the blows of the swords and arrows are being heard

With the knocking and falling and the sparks are coming out from them.6.

With the resounding of trumpets and knocking sound on the shields, the utterance of “kill kill” coming from the mouth is being heard

The bloody daggers of the warriors have come out in the battlefield and the headless trunks are dancing in an unconscious state.7.

The sixty-four female evil spirit (Yoginis) have filled their bowls with blood

And loosening their matted hair, they are raising their terrible sound, the most awful ghosts and fiends are laughing and the shrieking sound of the hideous vampires is being heard.8.

The warriors are giving the blows of their fists and feet in this way as if the thundering lions have furiously attacked one another

Hearing the terrible sound of the war, the attention of gods Shiva and Brahma hath distracted

The moon also trembled and the noonday sun also fled in fear.9.

There was water everywhere upward and downward and in this atmosphere Vishnu took aim of his arrows on his targets

The demons were collectively giving terrible blows of their fists in the way, like a crocodile aiming his blows on another crocodile.10.

The trumpets resounded and the mighty and terrible warriors fought with each other in this way, as if the elephants with long tusks are fighting with each other.

The sound of the drums and horns was being heard and there was also the clattering of the daggers and the crackling of the arrows.11.

The war was waged for eight days and eight nights, in which the earth and the sky trembled.

All the warriors appeared absorbed in warfare in the battle-field, and Vishnu caused the death and fall of the enemy.12.

Then he placed all the four Vedas on the protruding part of his teeth and caused the death and fall of the persistent inimical demons

Vishnu commanded Brahma and he created the Dhanur-veda for the happiness of all the saints.13.

In this way, the sixth partial incarnation of the Visnu manifested himself,

Who destroyed the enemies and protected the Vedas

There was the victory of Dharma (righteousness) and the gods collectively were Victorious,

And they caused to remove the pride of all in a right way.14.
