याऽसौ [ राजन् ] निहिता वर्षपूगा
न्वधायाजौ सत्कृता फल्गुनस्य ।

तां वै शक्तिं प्राहिणोद्राक्षसाय ॥

That Sakti which was being kept in
worship for many years for killing Arjuna
in the battle and which Indra had given
to Karna, Karna threw at the demon.
 
ततोऽन्तरिक्षादपतद्गतासु-
स्स राक्षसेन्द्रो भुवि भिनदेहः ॥
 
With body cut and life gone, the great
demon then fell on the ground from the
skies.
 
उदिते तु सहस्त्रांशौ पुनर्युद्धमवर्तत ॥
 
The battle went on again when the sun
 
arose.
 
उदीर्यमाणे द्रोणास्त्रे पाण्डवान्भयमाविशत् ॥
 
Fear took hold of the Pandavas when
 
Drona's missile was discharged.
