भगवन्निर्याणम्- THE PASSAGE
 
OF THE LORD
 
दिवि भुव्यन्तरिक्षे च महोत्पातान्समुत्थितान् ।
दृष्टवा सर्वे समाकर्ण्य यदुवृद्धा मधुद्विषः ।
तथेति नौभिरुत्तीर्य प्रभासं प्रययू रथैः ॥

Seeing ominous portents appearing in
the heavens, skies and on earth, and
hearing what Krishna told them, all the
Yadu elders acquiesced, crossed the sea
on boats and reached Prabhasa on their
chariots.
 
ततस्तस्मिन्महापानं पपुमँरेयकं मधु ।
दिष्टविभ्रंशितधियः यद्रवैर्भश्यते मतिः ॥
 
Then, at Prabhasa, the Yadavas who
lost their senses through Fate, drank the
powerful drink, the liquor called
Maireyaka, whereby one's senses are lost.
 
महापानाभिमत्तानां सङ्घर्षः सुमहानभूत् ।
युयुधुः क्रोधसंरब्धाः बेलायामाततायिनः ॥
