MADHUBHAAR STANZA
The flames of fire come from her mouth and she herself came out from the forehead (of Durga).
She killed the great elephants and the warriors on horseback.28.
The arrows are being shot and the swords are glistening.
The daggers are being struck and it appears that the festival of Holi is being celebrated.29.
The weapons are being use unhesitatingly, which create clattering sounds.
The guns boom and produce roaring sounds. 30
The Mother (goddess) challenges and the wounds bust.
The youthful warriors fight and the horses dance.31
ROOAAL STANZA
With increased anger, the demon-king sped forward.
He had four kinds of forces with him, who cause the dance of sharp weapons.
Whosoever was struck by the weapons of the goddess, those fighting warriors fell in the field.
Somewhere the elephants and somewhere horses are roaming without riders in the battlefield.32.
Somewhere clothes, turbans and fly-whisks are lying scattered and somewhere elephants, horses and chieftains are lying dead.
Somewhere generals and warriors with weapons and aromuts are lying down.
Somewhere the sonund of arrows, swords, guns, axes and special shafts is being heard.
Somewhere the heroes pierced by the daggers have fallen gracefully.33.
Large-sized vultures are flying there, the dogs are barking and the jackals are howling.
The intoxicated elephants look like the winged mountains and the crows, flying down to eat the flesh.
Thhe swords on the bodies of the demons appear like small fish and the shields look like tortoises.
On their bodies, the steel-armour looks elegant and the blood is flowing down like flood.34.
The new young warriors appear like boats and thhe charioteers look like shimps.
All this appears as if the traders loading their commodities are coyly running out of the battlefield.
The arrows of the battlefield are like the agents, who are busy in settling the account of the transaction.
The armies are fastly moving in the field for settlement and emptying their treasure of quivers.35.
Some where multi-coloured garments and chopped limbs are lying.
Somewhere there are shields and armours and somewhere there only weapons.
Somewhere there are heads, flags and ensigns scattered here and there.
In the battlefield all the enemies have fallen down while fighting and none has been left alive.36.
Then in great ire, the demon Mahishasura marched forward.
He appeared in a frightful form and held up all his weapons and arms.
The goddess Kalka took her sword in her hand and killed him instantly.
His soul left Brahmrandhir (life-channel of Dasam Dyar) and merged in Divine Light.37.
DOHRA
After killing Mahishasura, the Mother of the world was greatly pleased.
And from that day the whole world gives the sacrifice of the animals for the attainment of peace.38.
Here ends the First Chapter entitled ‘Killing of Mahishasura’ of Chandi Charitra in BACHITTAR NATAK.1.
Here begins the description of the war with Dhumar Nain :
KULAK STANZA
Then the goddess roared and there was continuous intonation.
All were delighted and felt comfortable.1.39.
The trumpents sounded and all the gods shouted.
They eulogise the godess and shower flowers on her. 2.40.
They worshipped the goddess in various ways and sang her poraises.
They have touhed her feet and all their sorrows have ended.3.41.
They sang the songs of victory and showered flowers.
They bowed their heads and obtained great comfort.4.42.
DOHRA
The goddess Chandi disappeared after bestowing kingdom on the gods.
Then after some time, both the demons kings came to power.5.43.
CHAUPAI
Both Sumbh and Nisumbh marched with their forces.
They conquered many enemies in water and on land.
They seized the kingdom of Indra, the king of gods.
Sheshanaga sent his head-jewel as a gift.6.44.
