CHAUPAI

ਕ੍ਰੂਰ ਕਰਮ ਬਧ ਨੈਨ ਨਿਹਾਰਿਓ ॥

kraoor karam badh nain nihaario |

ਤਬ ਹੀ ਅਪਨੋ ਖੜਗ ਸੰਭਾਰਿਓ ॥

tab hee apano kharrag sanbhaario |

When he saw the killing of Karurkaram with his own eyes, he held up his sword

ਕ੍ਰੂਰ ਦੈਤ ਰਿਸਿ ਨ੍ਰਿਪ ਪਰ ਧਾਯੋ ॥

kraoor dait ris nrip par dhaayo |

ਮਾਨੋ ਕਾਲ ਮੇਘ ਉਮਡਾਯੋ ॥੧੪੭੫॥

maano kaal megh umaddaayo |1475|

Now Karurdaitya fell upon the king, getting enraged, and it seemed that the death-like cloud had gushed out.1475.

ਆਵਤ ਹੀ ਤਿਹ ਭੂਪ ਪਚਾਰਿਓ ॥

aavat hee tih bhoop pachaario |

ਜਾਹੁ ਕਹਾ ਮੁਝ ਬੰਧੁ ਪਛਾਰਿਓ ॥

jaahu kahaa mujh bandh pachhaario |

On coming, he challenged the king, “Where are you going after killing my brother?

ਹਉ ਤੁਮ ਸੋ ਅਬ ਜੁਧ ਮਚੈ ਹੋ ॥

hau tum so ab judh machai ho |

ਭ੍ਰਾਤ ਗਯੋ ਜਹਿ ਤੋਹਿ ਪਠੈ ਹੋ ॥੧੪੭੬॥

bhraat gayo jeh tohi patthai ho |1476|

Now I shall fight with you and shall dispatch you there where my brother has gone.”1476.

ਯੌ ਕਹਿ ਕੈ ਤਬ ਖੜਗ ਸੰਭਾਰਿਓ ॥

yau keh kai tab kharrag sanbhaario |

ਅਤਿ ਪ੍ਰਚੰਡ ਬਲ ਕੋਪਿ ਪ੍ਰਹਾਰਿਓ ॥

at prachandd bal kop prahaario |

Saying this, he held up his sword and getting enraged, he struck a terrible blow

ਭੂਪਤਿ ਲਖਿਓ ਕਾਟਿ ਅਸਿ ਦੀਨੋ ॥

bhoopat lakhio kaatt as deeno |

ਸੋਊ ਮਾਰਿ ਰਨ ਭੀਤਰਿ ਲੀਨੋ ॥੧੪੭੭॥

soaoo maar ran bheetar leeno |1477|

The king saw this and cutting his sword, he knocked him also in the field.1477.
