In the west there was a fortunate king named Dev.
In the West Country there lived an auspicious king named Dev Raao. Mantar Kala was his wife.
Whatever the woman said, that was what he did as a fool.
The way the woman directed, that fool followed and without her consent would not take a single step.(1)
The king was always absorbed in it.
She always ensnared the Raja; they had two sons.
When the time came, the king died
After sometimes the Raja died and his sons took over the kingdom.(2)

And told him to stay their without any trepidation.(4)
Chaupaee
Then (that) handsome man thought in his mind
Then, that handsome man thought and spoke to the Rani emphatically,
That if you say one thing, then (I) say,
‘I must ask you one thing, I will stay if you agree, and otherwise I will leave.’(5)
Which I will say that it will not be able to do
(He thought) ‘I must say something which she cannot do and abandon thought of meeting me.
If (this) difficult work is done by this woman
‘Or else she will be too firm and will definitely marry me.’(6)
Dohira
‘These two sons which you have given birth to, kill them both,
‘And placing their heads in your lap, go out to beg alms.’ (7)
Chaupaee
Then that woman did the same thing
The woman decided to undertake the task and called both her sons.
He made them impure by drinking alcohol
She intoxicated them with wine and with a sword killed them both.(8)
Dohira
She cut of and put the heads of both of them in her lap.
Putting up the disguise of a beggar, she went out for begging.(9)
Chaupaee
Begging (she) went to Mitra
After begging, she went to her lover and showed him the heads of her sons.
(And said) I have killed them both for you.
‘I have killed my both the sons. Now you come and make love with me.’(10)
When the friend saw this hard work
An uphill task he faced, and for one whole watch he felt like a dead man.
When the second watch began
