SWAYYA

ਬਿਕ੍ਰਤਾਨਨ ਕੋ ਬਧ ਪੇਖਿ ਕੁਰੂਪ ਸੁ ਕਾਲ ਕੋ ਪ੍ਰੇਰਿਓ ਅਕਾਸ ਤੇ ਆਯੋ ॥

bikrataanan ko badh pekh kuroop su kaal ko prerio akaas te aayo |

ਬਾਨ ਕਮਾਨ ਕ੍ਰਿਪਾਨ ਗਦਾ ਗਹਿ ਲੈ ਕਰ ਮੈ ਅਤਿ ਜੁਧ ਮਚਾਯੋ ॥

baan kamaan kripaan gadaa geh lai kar mai at judh machaayo |

Seeing the killing of Vikartanan and inspired by death, Kurup went to the sky and taking the bow, sword, mace etc. in his hand he waged a dreadful war

ਸ੍ਰੀ ਸਕਤੇਸ ਬਡੁ ਧਨੁ ਤਾਨ ਕੈ ਬਾਨ ਮਹਾ ਅਰਿ ਗ੍ਰੀਵ ਲਗਾਯੋ ॥

sree sakates badd dhan taan kai baan mahaa ar greev lagaayo |

Shakti Singh also pulled his very large bow, made the throat of his enemy as his target

ਸੀਸ ਪਰਿਓ ਕਟਿ ਕੈ ਧਰਨੀ ਸੁ ਕਬੰਧ ਲਏ ਅਸਿ ਕੋ ਰਨਿ ਧਾਯੋ ॥੧੩੨੦॥

sees pario katt kai dharanee su kabandh le as ko ran dhaayo |1320|
