' एष वैरोचने विष्णुर्देवानां कार्यसाधकः ।

प्रतिश्रुतं त्वयैतस्मै यदनर्थमजानता।

न साधु मन्ये दैत्यानां महानुपगतोऽनयः ।

एष ते स्थानमैश्वर्यं श्रियं तेजो यशः श्रुतम् ।

दास्यत्याच्छिद्य शक्राय मायामाणवको हरिः ॥'

"Bali, this is Vishnu, (come here) to

achieve the purpose of the gods. I do not

approve of the (gift) you have promised

Him without knowing the danger. A

great calamity hath happened to the

demons. This Hari in the guise of a

Brahmacharin is going to snatch your

place, lordship, prosperity, power, fame

and learning and give them to Indra."
 

 
बलिः -
'स चाहं वित्तलोभेन प्रत्याचक्षे कथं द्विजम् ।

प्रतिश्रुत्य ददामीति प्राह्लादिः कितवो यथा ॥
 

Bali :
 

"How shall I, a descendant of Prahlada,

like some cheat, refuse (the gift) to a

Brahmin after having promised to give

him ?
