भगवन्निर्याणम्- THE PASSAGE
 

OF THE LORD
 

 
दिवि भुव्यन्तरिक्षे च महोत्पातान्समुत्थितान् ।

दृष्ट्वा 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 पपुमँर्मैरेयकं मधु ।

दिष्टविभ्रंशितधियः यद्द्रवैर्भश्यते 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 बेवेलायामाततायिनः ॥
