jag ke sab jeev udhaaran ko |

For the protection of the beings of the world and the killing of that demon, the god Shiva moved forward.

ਕਰਿ ਕੋਪਿ ਤਜਿਯੋ ਸਿਤ ਸੁਧ ਸਰੰ ॥

In great fury, shot one arrow and only with arrow, he destroyed that demon of Tripura, named Tripura.11.

ਲਖਿ ਕਉਤੁਕ ਸਾਧ ਸਬੈ ਹਰਖੇ ॥

ਸੁਮਨੰ ਬਰਖਾ ਨਭ ਤੇ ਬਰਖੇ ॥
sumanan barakhaa nabh te barakhe |

Seeing this performance all the saints were pleased and gods showered flowers form heaven.

ਧੁਨਿ ਪੂਰ ਰਹੀ ਜਯ ਸਦ ਹੂਅੰ ॥

The sound of “hail, hail” resound, there was consternation on Himalaya mountain and the earth tembled.12.

After a long time, another demons named Andhakasura came on the scene

Mounting his bull and holding his trident, Shiva moved forward (to chastise him). Seeing his terrible form, the gods were also startled.13.

Shiva marched forward alongwith Ganas, Gandharavas, Yakshas and Nagas and Durga also granted boon to him.

The gods began to see that Shiva would kill Andhakasura in the same way as he had killed the demon Tripura.14.

Form the other side that demons of vicious intellect started. From this side in great fury and holding the trident in his hand, Shiva moved.

Intoxicated with war-tactics, the mighty warriors presented the scene like the blazing flames of fire in the forst.15.

geh sasatr sabai ras rudr mache |

Both the demons and gods became absorbed in the war and bedecking themselves with weapons all the warriors enjoyed the relish of anger.

ਸਰ ਛਾਡਤ ਬੀਰ ਦੋਊ ਹਰਖੈ ॥

The warriors of both the sides enjoyed the shooting of arrows and the arrows are being showered like the raining of clouds on the doomsday.16.
