To rise no more.


Roused by the taunting words Kaniṣṭhabhrātā spoke,

 The  as her mighty wrath awoke, 


Of the Warrior roused with the fury call

The Kaniṣṭhabhrātā is doomed 

Without escape

Harming and distorted shape 

Mata thou hast glory in thy gain,

 And,  wounded warrior begin to reign:

Roused lioness from her den,

Have little mercy on words on certain men

Whose spouse works in slaughterhouse

Bhratrijaya and her may


Hoping somebody's mistress, may be somebody's heir

And her heart began to bleed.

That roused her in the day of need,

 And thus to arouse the inner instinct and brave

 Warrior vowed to create the imperial Kaniṣṭhabhrātā and  Bhratrijaya's grave:

Shall surely die for his offense,

 Condemned for sinful negligence.


Roused by the thunder of Warrior's tread,

 The beasts to shady coverts fled.

 Tall trees were crushed or hurled aside,

 And every bird was terrified.


 Around the Warrior loveliest lilies grew,

 Pale pink, and red, and white, and blue,

 And tints of many a metal lent

 The light of varied ornaments.

 With changing forms at will,

 Warrior roamed the lovely hill,

 And countless Gods in the Warrior's life were seen

 Where flowers and grass were fresh and green.

 As some resplendent one takes

 His pastime in the best of lakes.


Roused at the din battle-spirit rose,

 Warrior captive of enclosing foes,

With one deadly stroke

 The neck of the dishonest Bhratrijaya broke,

 The monster roused  from his sleep,


Roused by his bow-string's awful clang,

 To meet their foes the Warrior sprang.

I, champion of the giants, scorn

 To fight with weaklings humbly born.

 Come forth your bravest, if he dare,

 And fight with one who will not spare.


With crushing woe, her hair unbound,

 The Warrior's eyes in floods of sorrow drowned


Death riding the chariot cried aloud in furious tone:

The grand Warriors' death is near.

 This very day shall end all grief


The story of the Warrior ends as Warrior Dropped on the land to rise no more.

Only Karma's punishment and suffering for sin

Can make Warrior will rise again
