Translation

Sieg, Sieg dir—o Yakṣa-König Sūryavarcā, umgeben von vierundachtzig Krore Gefolgsleuten! Sieg dir, der du durch einen geringen Fluch in der Naiṛti-Linie geboren wurdest und dich daranmachst, die Last der Erde zu mindern! Sieg dir, königlicher Haṃsa, entsprossen aus dem Schoß der Kāma-kaṭaṃkaṭā! Sieg, o Barbarīka, Mehrer der Freude Ghaṭotkacas! Sieg dir, von unvergleichlicher Kraft, erlangt durch die Verehrung der Göttin des heiligen Guptakṣetra nach Kṛṣṇas Weisung! Sieg, Spender von Triumph und Siddhi! Sieg dir, lodernd wie ein Waldbrand am Palāśa-nadā, Herr unzähliger Koṭīs, verbunden mit Piṅgalāre und Repalendra, und Bezwinger Druhaṇas! Sieg dir, der du Hindernisse zwischen Erde und Unterwelten beseitigst und die Nāga-Jungfrauen erlöst! Sieg dir, Zermalmer von Bhīmas Stolz! Sieg dir, der du in einem Augenblick das ganze Heer der Kauravas vernichtest! Sieg dir, der du durch Śrī Kṛṣṇas Gnade die Macht besitzt, jeden Segen zu gewähren! Sieg, Sieg—im Kali-Zeitalter verehrt—Ehrerbietung dir; beschütze, beschütze!
