Thus consoling the demoness,

Narakasura, who reached the heaven

ruled by Indra, with his eyes spitting

fire of rage and with thunderous

voice, said thus to Indra.

Hey Indra, … come….

Come for a fight on the battle field, with me

who is courageous.
 

I will win over all your powers

I am arrogant due to the boons from Brahma
 

Even if Vishnu comes for a duel, I am not

afraid, you fool….

I am comparable to the demons Madhu and

Kaitabha. See the enormous power that I possess.
