(He) attacked by playing a deadly raga
Saying this, the minister marched forward with his companions and twelve extremely large military units, playing on the war-drums and other musical instruments in Maru musical mode.1759.
DOHRA
Balaram said to Krishna, (tell) what should be done now?
Balram said to Krishna, “Some step may be taken, because the minister Sumati has reached with innumerable forces in the battlefield.1760.
SORTHA
Then Krishna said, “Leave your idleness and take up your plough
Be near me and do not go anywhere.”1761.
SWAYYA
Balram held up his bow and arrows and in great fury, jumped into the war-arena
He killed many warriors and waged a dreadful war with the enemy
Whosoever came to fight with Balram, he was wounded very badly and the warrior who confronted him,
He either fell down unconscious on the ground or hissed while dying.1762.
When Krishna, taking up his bow and arrows, is challenging in the war like a lion,
Who is then so mighty not to forsake endurance and fight with him?
Who is there in all the three worlds who can be inimical with Balram and Krishna,
But still if anyone comes persistently to fight with them, he reaches the abode of Yama in an instant.1763.
Which mighty warrior will observe endurance, seeing Balram and Krishna coming to fight?
He, who is the Lord of the fourteen world, the king, considering him a child, is fighting with him
He, with the glory of whose name, all the sins are destroyed, who can kill him in the war?
All the people getting together are saying this that the enemy Jarasandh will die without cause.1764.
SORTHA
On this side in the army of the king, such-like thoughts are arising int eh minds of the warriors and
On that side Krishna sustaining his power and weapons, fearlessly fell upon the army.1765.
