Transliteration
ví vṛkṣā́n hanty utá hanti rakṣáso víśvaṃ bibhāya bhúvanaṃ mahā́vadhāt | utā́nāgā īṣate vṛṣṇyā́vato yát parjányā́ḥ stanáyan hánti duṣkṛ́taḥ ||
Translation
তিনি বৃক্ষকেও আঘাত করেন, রক্ষসদেরও বিনাশ করেন; তাঁর মহা-অস্ত্রের ভয়ে সমগ্র ভুবন কেঁপে ওঠে। যখন গর্জনরত পর্জন্য দুষ্কৃতকারীদের দমন করেন, তখন নির্দোষেরাও শিহরিত হয়ে ওঠে।
