Seeing Mahodara and Mahaparshva the demons having been killed, and that valiant and mighty Virupaksha struck down in that great battle, a tremendous anger took possession of Ravana. He urged on his charioteer and addressed to him the following words:

महोदर और महापार्श्व नामक दो राक्षसों को मारा हुआ देखकर और उस वीर विरूपाक्ष महाबली के भी मारे जाने पर, रावण को महायुद्ध में अत्यंत क्रोध आ गया। उसने अपने सारथी को रथ दौड़ाने का आदेश दिया और यह वाक्य कहा।

राम के वृक्षों को युद्ध में मारकर, जो सीता को पुष्प और फल प्रदान करते हैं, जिनकी शाखाएँ सुग्रीव, जाम्बवान, कुमुद और नल हैं, वह महान रथ पर सवार होकर, दस दिशाओं को अपने रथ के घोष से गुंजायमान करता हुआ, शीघ्रता से राम की ओर बढ़ा।
Ravana, the mighty and the surpassing Chariot-Warrior, went quickly, making a noise in all the ten directions, with the sound of the chariot, rushing towards Rama.
उस शब्द से नदियाँ, पर्वत और वन भर गए।
यह सुनकर समस्त पृथ्वी, सूअर, मृग और हाथियों सहित काँपने लगी।
He employed very highly terrific and exceedingly frightful mystic missile called Tamasa, which began to consume all the monkeys, who started falling down on all sides.

न हि तत्सहितुं शेकुर्ब्रह्मणा निर्मितं स्वयम् || ६-९९-९
Dust began to fly up from the earth, while those frustrated monkeys were fleeing away for they could no longer bear that missile built by Brahma himself.
यह श्लोक कहता है कि उन टूटे हुए और बिखरे हुए लोगों के कारण धरती पर धूल उड़ने लगी। वे स्वयं ब्रह्मा द्वारा बनाए गए होने के कारण इसे सहन नहीं कर सके।
Having driven away the army of monkeys, Ravana the foremost among the demons then saw Rama, the annihilator of his enemies, who was endowed with long arms and eyes as wide as lotus petals standing unconquered with his brother Lakshmana-like Indra the lord of celestials is seen with Vishnu, the supreme lord of preservation-holding up his great bow as though scraping the sky.
तब वानर सेना को भगाकर, वह सिंह के समान पराक्रमी राक्षस राम के सामने खड़ा हो गया, जो अजेय थे। जैसे विष्णु अपने भाई इन्द्र के साथ आकाश में खड़े हों, वैसे ही राम अपने भाई लक्ष्मण के साथ विशाल धनुष को थामे हुए थे। कमल के पत्तों जैसे विशाल नेत्रों वाले, लंबी भुजाओं वाले और शत्रुओं का दमन करने वाले राम वहाँ विराजमान थे।
Seeing the disappointed monkeys and Ravana advancing, the mighty Rama who was endowed with a great splendour and accompanied by Lakshmana who were born in Raghu dynasty, then pleasingly seized his bow at the middle.
तब महा तेजस्वी राम, लक्ष्मण के साथ बलवान होकर, युद्ध में पराजित वानरों को और आते हुए रावण को देखकर, प्रसन्न हुए और धनुष उठा लिया।
Thereupon, Rama began to stretch his excellent bow, which was endowed with great force and sonorous, as though he was breaking the earth asunder.
तब उसने उस श्रेष्ठ धनुष को, जो अत्यंत वेगवान और महानाद करने वाला था, पृथ्वी को भेदता हुआ सा, खींचना आरम्भ किया।

रावणस्य च बाणौघै रामविस्फारितेन च |

Then, due to that buzzing sound produced by the streams of Ravana's arrows as also by the twang of Rama's bow, those demons fell down in their hundreds.
रावण के बाणों और राम के धनुष से निकले शब्द के प्रहार से उस समय राक्षस सैकड़ों की संख्या में गिर पड़े।
That Ravana, coming within the range of arrow-shots of Rama and Lakshmana, resembled Rahu (the demon who is supposed to seize the sun and the moon), standing in the vicinity of the moon and the sun.
यहाँ श्लोक का सरल हिंदी अनुवाद दिया गया है:
उन दोनों राजकुमारों के बाणों का लक्ष्य बनकर रावण, चंद्रमा और सूर्य के निकट राहु के समान हो गया।
Rama on Ravana and Ravana on Rama, quickly showered each other with streams of sharp-pointed arrows of various kinds.
यहाँ श्लोक का सरल हिंदी अनुवाद दिया गया है:
राम ने रावण को और रावण ने राम को शीघ्रता से तीखे बाणों से एक दूसरे पर वर्षा की। दोनों एक दूसरे पर अनेक प्रकार के तीखे बाणों से प्रहार करने लगे।
Pushing back each other with the velocity of their arrows and remaining undefeated, the two warriors described circles of different kinds each moving from left to right, for a long time.
वे दोनों, जो युद्धों में कभी पराजित नहीं हुए, अपने तीरों की गति को देखकर, एक साथ बाएँ और दाएँ, एक अद्भुत घेरा बनाते रहे।
Created beings were frightened, even as both the terrific warriors were fighting all at once, releasing their arrows at each other, thus resembling the god of retribution and the god of Death respectively.
उन दोनों भयंकर और बाणों की वर्षा करने वाले, यमराज के समान दिखने वाले योद्धाओं के बीच एक साथ युद्ध छिड़ गया।
The sky at that time became dense with arrows of various kinds, even as it is covered, at the end of the monsoon, with clouds crowded with crowns of lightning.
उस समय, विविध बाणों से आकाश घने बादलों से घिर गया था, जैसे सूर्य के अस्त होने पर बिजली की मालाओं से आच्छादित हो जाता है।
The sky was studded as with eye-holes, by showers of arrows of high velocity, which were extremely sharp-pointed and adorned with plumes of vultures and were loosed with high speed.
आकाश खिड़की से झाँकने जैसा हो गया था, क्योंकि भयंकर वेग वाले तीखे नोक वाले गिद्ध के पंखों से वर्षा हो रही थी।
They initially made the sky dark with arrows. Even after the sun-set, they made it dark, like two huge clouds risen in it.
जब सूर्य अस्त हो गया, तब वे दोनों, भीम की तरह, घने बादलों के समान उत्पन्न हुए और घोर अंधकार छा गया।

A great combat ensued between both of them, who were willing to kill each other. That battle was unimaginable and unapproachable, like the duel that took place between Vritra the demon and Indra the lord of celestials.
उन दोनों (इंद्र और वृत्र) के बीच भयंकर युद्ध हुआ, जो एक दूसरे को मारना चाहते थे। यह युद्ध ऐसा था जैसे वृत्र और इंद्र के बीच हुआ था, जिसे रोकना या समझना अत्यंत कठिन था।
Both the warriors were excellent archers. Both were skilled in war-fare. Both were eminently skilled in the use of missiles. Both moved unhindered in the battle-field.
दोनों ही महान धनुर्धर थे और दोनों ही शस्त्र चलाने में अत्यंत निपुण थे। वे दोनों ही अस्त्र-विद्या के प्रमुख ज्ञाता थे और युद्ध में निर्भय होकर विचरण करते थे।
Rama endured on his head, that row of steel arrows, having a lustre of black lotus-petals, discharged from the terrific bow. He did not get perturbed.

राम ने नीले कमल के पत्तों जैसी चमक वाली उस धनुष-बाण से युक्त स्त्री को अपने सिर पर धारण किया, फिर भी वे व्यथित नहीं हुए।
Thereupon, seizing hold of more arrows, reciting sacred incantations and making use of the missile presided over by Rudra and stretching his bow, the valiant Rama of great splendour was filled with anger and released those arrows.
क्रोधित राम, महातेजस्वी और बलवान, मंत्रों का जाप करते हुए और भयानक अस्त्र का उच्चारण करते हुए, और भी बाणों को लेकर, धनुष को खींचकर चलाए।

ते महामेघसङ्काशे कवचे पतिताः शराः || ६-९९-३७
अवध्ये राक्षसेन्द्रस्य न व्यथान् जनयन्स्तदा |
Fallen on the unbreakable armour of Ravana, which looked like a large cloud, those arrows could not cause any pain to him at that time.
यह श्लोक कहता है कि उस महामेघ के समान कवच में गिरे हुए बाण, उस राक्षसराज को तब कोई चोट नहीं पहुँचा सके।
Rama, who was skilled in the use of all types of mystic missiles, forthwith pierced in the forehead, yet again by a paramount missile, that Ravana seated in his chariot.
श्रीराम ने फिर से रथ पर बैठे हुए उस राक्षसराज को, जो सभी अस्त्रों में कुशल था, अपने श्रेष्ठ अस्त्र से माथे पर मारा।
Striking down Rama's missile, that Ravana, who was stupefied with anger, employed another exceedingly terrific missile presided over by demoniac forces.
रावण ने राम के अस्त्रों को नष्ट कर, क्रोध से भरकर एक और भयानक असुर अस्त्र धारण किया।
He released sharp arrows, having the heads of lions and tigers, those of buzzards and crows, even of vultures and faloons, as well as those of jackals and wolves, arrows with their mouths wide open, having the heads of venomous snakes with five heads, bringing fear.
यह श्लोक विभिन्न भयानक मुख वाले प्राणियों का वर्णन करता है। इसमें सिंह, बाघ, कौआ, गिद्ध, चील और लोमड़ी जैसे मुख वाले प्राणी शामिल हैं। इन सभी को भयानक और डरावना बताया गया है।
Hissing like a serpent provoked to anger Ravana who was endowed with extraordinary energy and conjuring tricks, released towards Rama these and other arrows, having the heads of donkeys, those of boars, dogs and cocks as also of alligators and venomous snakes.
यहाँ श्लोक का सरल हिंदी अनुवाद दिया गया है:
क्रोधित रावण ने, सर्प की तरह फुफकारते हुए, सूअर, कुत्ते, मुर्गे और मगरमच्छ के मुख वाले तीखे बाणों को माया से बनाया।
Possessed by a missile presided over by demoniac forces, that Rama endowed with a great strength and resembling the god of fire, released a missile presided over by the god of fire.
रघुनन्दन, असुरों से घिर जाने पर, अत्यंत उत्साही होकर, अग्नि के समान तेजस्वी अस्त्र का निर्माण किया।
Rama employed there, various kinds of arrows, with heads bright as fire, others with heads shining like the sun, the moon, the crescent, a comet, others shining like planets, lunar mansions and a huge meteor and some arrows resembling flashes of lightning.
अग्नि, सूर्य, चंद्रमा, धूमकेतु, ग्रह, नक्षत्र और उल्काओं के मुख वाले तीखे बाणों को उसने उत्पन्न किया। साथ ही बिजली की जीभ वाले अन्य तीखे बाण भी उसने बनाए।
Rejoiced to see that missile struck down by Rama, who was unweary in action, all the valiant monkeys, who were capable of changing their form at will, then encompassing Rama, raised a clamour, facing Sugreeva.
राम ने जब उस अस्त्र को निष्प्रभ होते देखा, तो कामरूपधारी वीर वानर अत्यंत प्रसन्न हुए। वे सुग्रीव की ओर मुख करके और राम के चारों ओर घिरकर गर्जना करने लगे।
Striking down with force that missile which came forth from Ravana's arms, the great-souled Rama, then was filled with rejoice while the chiefs of monkeys, full f joy, shouted loudly.
तब उस महाबली राम ने रावण की भुजा से निकले उस अस्त्र को बलपूर्वक नष्ट कर दिया। इससे प्रसन्न होकर श्री राम ने गर्जना की, और वानरराज भी आनंदित होकर ऊँचे स्वर से जयकार करने लगे।
Seeing Mahodara and Mahaparshva the demons having been killed, and that valiant and mighty Virupaksha struck down in that great battle, a tremendous anger took possession of Ravana. He urged on his charioteer and addressed to him the following words:
