Then Hussian thundered striking his arms and prepared for attack with all his brave warriors.1.
Hussain assembled all his forces and advanced. At first he plundered the houses of the hill-people.
Then he conquered the Raja of Dadhwal and brought him under submission. The sons of the Raja were made slaves.2.
Then he plundered the Doon thoroughly, none could face the barbarian.
He took away forcibly the foodgrains and distributed them (amongst the soldiers), the big fool thus committed a very bad act.3.
DOHRA
Some days passed in such acts, the turn of meeting the Raja of Guler came.4.
If he had met (Hussain) for two days more, the enemy would have come here (towards me), but the Providence had thrown a device of discord towards his house.5.
CHAUPAI
The Raja of Guler came to meet Hussain and with him came Ram Singh.
They met Hussain after the four quarters of the days had passed. The slave Hussian become blind in vanity.6.
DOHRA
Just as the sand becomes heated by the heat of the sun, the wretched sand doth not know the might of the sun and become proud of itself.7.
CHAUPAI
Slimilarly the slave Hussain was puffed up with ego, he did not care to notice them.
With the Rajas of Kahlur and Katoch on his side, he considered himself peerless. 8.
(The Raja of Guler and Ram Singh) offered money to Hussain, which they had brought with them.
A dispute arose in giving and taking, therefore the Rajas returned to their places with the money.9.
Then Hussain was enraged and lost the power of discriminating between good and bad.
He made no other consideration and ordered the beating drum against the Raja of Guler.10.
He did not think of any tactical consideration. The hare surrounded the lion for frightening him.
He besieged him for fifteen pahars (about 45 hours) and did not allow the items of food and drink to reach the state.11.
Being without food and drink, the warriors were filled with ire, the Raja sent the messengers for the Purpose of making peace.
Seeing the Pathan forces around him, the slave Hussain lost his balance and did not consider the request of the Raja.12.
He said, “Either give me ten thousand rupees immediately or take death on year head.”
I had sent Sangatia Singh there for making peace (among the chief), he brought Gopal on oath of God.13.
But he could not reconcile with them then Kirpal thought within his mind:
That such an opportunity will not be available again, because the circle of time deceives everybody.14.
He decided to catch hold of Gopal immediately, either to imprision him or kill him.
When Gopal got scent of the conspiracy, he escaped to his people (forces).15.
MADHUBHAAR STANZA
When Gopal was gone, Kirpal was filled with anger.
Himmat and Hussain rushed for fighting in the field.16.
With great pride, more warriors followed.
The drums and trumpets resounded.17.
On the other side, the trumpets also resounded and the horses danced in the battlefield.
The warriors enthusiastically strike their weapons, creating clattering sound.18.
The fearless warriors blow their horns and shout loudly.
The swords are struck and the warriors are lying on the ground.19.
