The Awakening of Kumbhakarna
कुम्भकर्णोबभौहृष्टःकालान्तकयमोपमः ।भ्रातुस्सभवनंगच्छन्रक्षोबलसमन्वितः ।।।।कुम्भकर्णःपदन्यासैरकम्पयतमेन्दिीम् ।
kumbhakarṇo babhau hṛṣṭaḥ kālāntaka-yamopamaḥ |
bhrātuḥ sa bhavanaṃ gacchan rakṣo-bala-samanvitaḥ ||
kumbhakarṇaḥ pada-nyāsair akampayata medinīm |
กุมภกรรณยินดีเริงร่า ปรากฏดุจยมราชผู้ทำลายล้างในกาลอวสาน แวดล้อมด้วยกองทัพยักษ์ เขามุ่งสู่พระราชวังของพี่ชาย และด้วยการย่างเท้าแต่ละก้าวทำให้แผ่นดินสะเทือน
Kumbhakarna surrounded by Rakshasas going to his brother's abode happily looked like the Lord of death bent on destroying the creation. He took strides which shook the earth.
The epic frames adharmic power as terrifying and world-shaking; Dharma is implied as that which protects the world from such destructive force.
Kumbhakarṇa advances toward Rāvaṇa’s abode with an army; his massive steps shake the earth.
Overwhelming might and fear-inducing presence; it functions as a narrative foil to Rama’s righteous, measured strength.
