SWAYYA
Balram taking his mace in his hand, killed a group of enemies in an instant
The warriors with blood-saturated bodies, are lying wounded on the earth
The poet Shyam, while describing that spectacle says that it appears to him
That the ‘anger’ had manifested himself apparently in order to see the war-scenes.1766.
On this side Balram is engged in fighting and on that side Krishna is getting filled with rage
Taking up his weapons, he is resisting the enemy’s army,
And killing the army of the enemy, he has created a queer scene
The horse is seen lying on the horse, the chariot-rider on the chariot-rider, elephant upon the elephant and the rider on the rider.1767.
Some warriors is cut into two halves, the heads of many warriors have been chopped and thrown
Many are lying wounded on the earth, being deprived of their chariots
Many people have lost their hands and many their feet
They can’t be enumerated, the poet says that all have lost their endurance and all have run away from the war-arena.1768.
The army of the enemy, which had conquered the whole world and was never defeated
This army had fought against it in unison
The same army has been caused to flee by Krishna in an instant and none could even take up his bow and arrows
The gods and demons both are appreciating the war of Krishna.1769.
DOHRA
When Sri Krishna killed two untouchables in battle,
When Krishna destroyed two extremely large military units, then the minister Sumati, challenging in anger, fell upon him.1770.
SWAYYA
At that time the warriors fell down in anger (who) had shields on their faces and swords in their hands.
The warriors getting enraged, taking up the swords and shields in their hands fell upon Krishna, who challenged them and they persistently came in front of him
On this side, Krishna, catching hold of his club, discus, mace etc. in his hands, struck terrible blows and the sparks emanated from the armours
It appeared that an ironsmith was fashioning according to his desire the iron by the strokes of his hammer.1771
Till that time, Kratvarma and Uddhava reached for the help of Krishna
Akrur also taking the Yadava warriors with him fell upon the enemies in order to kill them
Poet Shyam says, all the warriors keep their weapons and cry out.
Holding their weapons and should “kill, kill”, a dreadful war was waged from both sides with maces, lances swords, daggers etc.1772.
Kratvarma on coming chopped down many warriors
Someone has been cut into two parts and someone’s head has been cut down
From the bows of several powerful warriors the arrows are being discharged in this way
That it seems the birds are flying groups towards the trees for rest in the evening before the night falls.1773.
Somewhere the headless trunks are roaming in the battlefield taking the swords in their hands and
Whosoever challenging in the field, the warriors fall upon him
Someone has fallen because his foot has been cut and for getting up, he is taking the support of the vehicle and s
Omewhere the chopped arm is writhing like a fish out of water.1774.
The poet Ram says that some headless trunk is running in the battlefield without the weapon and
Catching hold of the trunks of the elephants, is shaking them violently with force
He is also pulling the neck of dead horses lying on the ground with both his hands and
Is trying to break the heads of the dead horse-riders with one slap.1775.
The warriors are fighting while continuously jumping and swinging in the battlefield
They are not afraid even slightly form the bows, arrows and swords
Many cowards are relinquishing their weapons in the battlefield in fear coming back to the battlefield and
Fighting and falling dead on the ground.1776.
When Krishna held up his discus, the enemy forces became fearful
Krishna while smiling deprived many mightly onces of their life force
(Then) he took the mace and crushed some and (killed) others by squeezing him in the waist.
