I am surprised I have an enemy
to split rutted elephants’ foreheads!
now possible for a monkey to defeat me?
capture that senseless creature.
May you be blessed – Hey the famous, valorous great one
The noble one you are – who killed the powerful demon – Now on, we do not have concerns
The most horrible Bakan – You brought death to him – We shall reciprocate with blessing – What else we could do
Sloka:
The courageous Bheema, after consuming the food offered by the Brahmins, boarded the vehicle with oxes and filled with foodstuff, made up with red garland and other perfumes, entered the demon’s woods and eating the laatter’s food, challenged him.
Hey the king of demons, come, the king of demons
Hey, the king of demons, Come, properly, the enemy of gods, the night-walking crooked, do not have any foul thoughts – forever
Enjoying you would leave – do not have any such thoughts – you illhearted demon
Sloka:
Hearing these aggrieved scream of the Brahmins with children, the ever-so kind hearted Kunthi, spoke thus to the couple.
Hey noble Brahmin, tell me the reason for your grief
Along with this lady, you week in grief – why? Am curious to know that at once
Hey noble Brahmin, tell me, the reason for this sorrow
Sloka:
As Kirmeera was killed, his companions ran away hither-thither. The rejoiced Rishis came and congratulated Bheema
Hey, the ocean of great valor – our worries have been removed – hey, noble-minded
The one with powerful arms – you shall always have auspiciousness
The inimitable demons – You killed them in the battle - Due to that we can stay in the forest in peace
Performing godly sacrifices here – we – near the curvy shores of River Ganges – We shall live happily
You shameless, human stupid, On this vast chest of yours,
Group of weapons would dance around
Defend these weapons, you human-bloody!!, defend these weapons
[After the padam, battle routine. In the ensuing battle, Bheema kills Kirmeera by hitting on the chest.]
