निपटहिं द्विज करि जानहि मोही। मैं जस बिप्र सुनावउँ तोही॥ चाप स्रुवा सर आहुति जानू। कोपु मोर अति घोर कृसानू॥ १ ॥
Transliteration (IAST)
nipaṭahiṃ dvija kari jānahi mohī। maiṃ jasa bipra sunāvauṃ tohī॥ cāpa sruvā sara āhuti jānū। kopu mora ati ghora kṛsānū॥ 1 ॥
Meaning
Do you take me for nothing but a Brahmin? I will tell you what sort of Brahmin I am. Know the bow as the ladle, the arrow as the offering, and my anger as a terribly fierce fire.
