Chaupai Text
नख आयुध गिरि पादपधारी। चले गगन महि इच्छाचारी॥ केहरिनाद भालु कपि करहीं। डगमगाहिं दिग्गज चिक्करहीं॥ ५ ॥

nakha āyudha giri pādapadhārī। cale gagana mahi icchācārī॥ keharināda bhālu kapi karahīṃ। ḍagamagāhĩ diggaja cikkarahīṃ॥ 5 ॥
Meaning
Their nails were their weapons; bearing mountains and trees, they moved wherever they wished, some through the sky and some across the earth. They roared like lions, and the elephants of the directions trembled and trumpeted.
