कुम्भकर्णवधः
The Slaying of Kumbhakarna
कुम्भकर्णस्तुसङ्कृद्धस्समारूढःप्लवङ्गमैः ।।।।व्यधूनयत्तान्वेगेनदुष्टहस्तीवहस्तिपान् ।
kumbhakarṇas tu saṅkruddhaḥ samārūḍhaḥ plavaṅgamaiḥ | vyadhūnayat tān vegena duṣṭahastīva hastipān ||
مگر کُمبھکرن، جب پلَوَنگم اس پر چڑھ آئے تو غضبناک ہو اٹھا؛ اور اس نے انہیں زور سے یوں جھٹک دیا جیسے بدخو ہاتھی اپنے مہاوت کو پٹک دے۔
Enraged Kumbhakarna shook off the monkeys climbed on his body like a harsh elephant shakes off its rider.
Unchecked anger magnifies harm; the epic contrasts disciplined, purposeful force with rage-driven violence that endangers many.
Kumbhakarna resists the Vanaras’ attempt to restrain him and violently throws them off.
For the protagonists, perseverance is implied—continuing the righteous effort despite setbacks.
