So brahma datta prachand sakti anant

Chhand, Under Doha 83 · Lanka Kand

Chhand Text

सो ब्रह्म दत्त प्रचंड सक्ति अनंत उर लागी सही। पर्‌यो बीर बिकल उठाव दसमुख अतुल बल महिमा रही॥ ब्रह्मांड भवन बिराज जाकें एक सिर जिमि रज कनी। तेहि चह उठावन मूढ़ रावन जान नहिं त्रिभुअन धनी॥

Transliteration (IAST)

so brahma datta pracaṇḍa sakti ananta ura lāgī sahī। paryo bīra bikala uṭhāva dasamukha atula bala mahimā rahī॥ brahmāṇḍa bhavana birāja jākeṃ eka sira jimi raja kanī। tehi caha uṭhāvana mūṛha rāvana jāna nahiṃ tribhuana dhanī॥

Meaning

That terrible weapon granted by Brahma struck the very chest of the limitless one. The hero fell, overwhelmed. Ravana then tried to lift him, but his unmatched strength was powerless. The one whose single head is like a speck of dust supporting the whole universe—how could that fool Ravana hope to lift him? He does not know the Lord of the three worlds.
