There was a great king of Guwahati named Narkasur.
He used to win over the kings and take away their daughters. 1.
twenty four:
He planned a yagya.
One lakh kings were captured.
If another king is caught
Then he should perform the big Nrip-medha yag. 2.
His first castle was of iron,
The second was the copper fort,
The third was made of eight metals
And the fourth castle was made of coins. 3.
Then he had built the fort of Saftik
At the sight of which even the Kailash Parbat ('Rudrachal') bowed its head.
(He) adorned the sixth castle with silver
In front of whom even Brahmapuri was nothing. 4.
The seventh castle was made of gold
The beautiful fort of Lanka was also beautiful.
The king himself lived in it.
He used to hold him who did not accept his Ein. 5.
If another king rises in his hands
So he should kill all the kings.
(Then) let him marry sixteen thousand queens
And complete 'Narmedh Yag'. 6.
A queen said thus
that there is a glorious king named Ugrasain ('Ugres') in Dwaravati.
If you conquer him,
Then this Nirap-Yagna will be completed.7.

And sent to where Krishna was sitting. 8.

(Written in the letter) O Blessed Krishna! Where are you sitting?
We have our eyes on you.
Kill this king and free the (other) kings
And take us all home. 9.
When Krishna heard the words (written in the letter).
So the Garuda-riders (Lord) came mounted on Garuda.
First (they) broke the iron fortress.
Tore the head of the one who came forward. 10.

Later, he conquered the fort with eight metals.

So the king woke up and put on all his armor.
Brought with all the army
And being very angry, played the music. 12.
