kabiyo baach |

Speech of the poet:

ਸਵੈਯਾ ॥

savaiyaa |

Swayya

ਜਾਨਿ ਦੁਖੀ ਅਪਨ੍ਰਯੋ ਜਨ ਕੌ ਅਪਨੋ ਤਨ ਤਾ ਤੈ ਛਡਾਇ ਲਯੋ ਹੈ ॥

jaan dukhee apanrayo jan kau apano tan taa tai chhaddaae layo hai |

Seeing all his people in great distress, standing on the bank,

ਬਕਤ੍ਰ ਬਿਲੋਕ ਬਡੋ ਵਹ ਪੰਨਗ ਪੈ ਮਨ ਭੀਤਰ ਕ੍ਰੁਧ ਭਯੋ ਹੈ ॥

bakatr bilok baddo veh panag pai man bheetar krudh bhayo hai |

Krishna got his body released from the entanglement of the snake, seeing this that dreadful snake got furious

ਸਉ ਫਨ ਕੋ ਸੁ ਫੁਲਾਇ ਉਚਾਇ ਕੈ ਸਾਮੁਹਿ ਤਾਹਿ ਕੇ ਧਾਇ ਗਯੋ ਹੈ ॥

sau fan ko su fulaae uchaae kai saamuhi taeh ke dhaae gayo hai |

He again spread his hood, came running inn front of Krishna

ਕੂਦ ਕੈ ਕਾਨ੍ਰਹ ਬਚਾਇ ਕੈ ਦਾਵਹਿ ਉਪਰਿ ਮਾਥ ਜੁ ਠਾਢੋ ਭਯੋ ਹੈ ॥੨੧੩॥

kood kai kaanrah bachaae kai daaveh upar maath ju tthaadto bhayo hai |213|

Krishna, saving himself from the ambush, jumped and stood with his feet on the forehead of the serpent.213.

ਕੂਦਤ ਹੈ ਚੜਿ ਸਿਰ ਊਪਰਿ ਸ੍ਰਉਨ ਸੰਬੂਹ ਚਲੈ ਸਿਰ ਤਾ ਤੇ ॥

koodat hai charr sir aoopar sraun sanbooh chalai sir taa te |

Ascending on the head of that snake, Krishna began to jump and the currents of the hot blood began to flow from the head (of the serpent)

ਪ੍ਰਾਨ ਲਗੇ ਛੁਟਨੇ ਜਬ ਹੀ ਛਿਨ ਮੈਨ ਗਈ ਉਡ ਕੈ ਮੁਖਰਾ ਤੇ ॥

praan lage chhuttane jab hee chhin main gee udd kai mukharaa te |

When that serpent was about to breathe his last, all the luster of his being ended

ਤਉ ਹਰਿ ਜੀ ਬਲਿ ਕੈ ਤਨ ਕੋ ਸਰ ਤੀਰ ਨਿਕਾਸ ਲਯੋ ਬਹੁ ਭਾਤੇ ॥

tau har jee bal kai tan ko sar teer nikaas layo bahu bhaate |

Then Krishna dragged the serpent to the bank of the river with his power

ਜਾਤ ਬਡੋ ਸਰ ਤੀਰ ਬਹਿਯੋ ਰਸਰੇ ਬੰਧ ਖੈਚਤ ਹੈ ਚਹੂੰ ਘਾਤੇ ॥੨੧੪॥

jaat baddo sar teer bahiyo rasare bandh khaichat hai chahoon ghaate |214|

That Naga was pulled towards the bank and on tying ropes from all the four sides, he was dragged out.214.
