किमर्थं च त्वया विद्धो मृगोऽयं मत्परिग्रहः ॥ ३.३९.१९ ॥
Golden-hued one, do you not fear in this terrible forest? And why did you strike this deer, which is under my protection?

तेन त्वां भ्रंशयिष्यामि जीवितात्पर्वताश्रयम् ॥ ३.३९.२१ ॥
What you have done to me today is not the law of the hunt. Therefore, dweller of the mountains, I will cast you down from life.

उवाच श्लक्ष्णया वाचा पाण्डवं सव्यसाचिनं ॥ ३.३९.२२ ॥

इयं भूमिः सदाऽस्माकमुचिता वसतां वने ॥ ३.३९.२३ ॥
Hero, you should not be afraid of the forest's edge on my account. This land is always fitting for us who dwell in the forest.

त्वया तु दुष्करः कस्मादिह वासः प्ररोचितः ।
वयं तु बहुसत्त्वेऽस्मिन्निवसामस्तपोधन ॥ ३.३९.२४ ॥
But why have you chosen to dwell here, where it is hard for you? We dwell in this forest, full of creatures, O treasure of austerity.

भवांस्तु कृष्णवत्मार्भः सुकुमारः सुखोचितः ।
कथं शून्यमिमं देशमेकाकी विचरिष्यति ॥ ३.३९.२५ ॥

राक्षसो निहतो घोरो हन्तुं मामिह चागतः ॥ ३.३९.२७ ॥
This creature too, which had taken the form of a deer, was slain by me; this terrible rākṣasa had come here to kill me.
3.39.28
मयैष धन्वनिर्मुक्तैस्ताडितः पूर्वमेव हि ।
बाणैरभिहतः शेते नीतश्च यमसादनम् ॥ ३.३९.२८ ॥
I struck him earlier with arrows released from my bow; struck down by the arrows he lies, and has been taken to the abode of Yama.
3.39.29
ममैवायं लक्ष्यभूतः पूर्वमेव परिग्रहः ।
ममैव च प्रहारेण जीविताद्व्यपरिपितः ॥ ३.३९.२९ ॥

अभिषक्तोस्मि मन्दात्मन्न मे जीवन्विमोक्ष्यसे ॥ ३.३९.३० ॥
You fool, intoxicated by your own strength, you ought not lay your own faults on another. I have ensnared you; alive you will not be released from me.

Hearing those words of the Kirāta, Arjuna then grew angry and struck him with arrows.

इत्युक्तो बाणवर्षं स मुमोच सहसाऽर्जुनः ॥ ३.३९.३४ ॥
"Strike with these arrows, the nārācas that pierce the vital spots," so addressed, Arjuna suddenly released a shower of arrows.

अक्षतेन शरीरेण तस्थौ गिरिवाचलः ॥ ३.३९.३७ ॥
Having received the shower of arrows for a moment, the bearer of the Pināka bow stood unharmed, immovable like a mountain.

परमं विस्मयं चक्रे साधुसाध्विति चाब्रवीत् ॥ ३.३९.३८ ॥
Seeing that the shower of arrows had become ineffective, Dhanaṃjaya was greatly astonished and said, "Well done, well done!"
3.39.39

गाण्डीवमुक्तान्नाराचान्प्रतिगृह्णात्यविह्वलः ॥ ३.३९.३९ ॥
Oh! This tender-limbed one, dwelling on the peaks of the Himālaya, receives the iron-shafted arrows released from the Gāṇḍīva without being perturbed!
3.39.40
कोऽयं देवो भवेत्साक्षाद्रुद्रो यक्षः सुरोऽसुरः ।
विद्यते हि गिरिश्रेष्ठे त्रिदशानां समागमः ॥ ३.३९.४० ॥
Who is this god? Could he be Rudra himself, or a yaksha, a sura, or an asura? Verily, on this best of mountains an assembly of the gods has gathered.
3.39.41
न हि मद्वाणजालानामुत्सृष्टानां सहस्रशः ।
शक्तोऽन्यः सहितुं वेगमृते देवं पिनाकिनम् ॥ ३.३९.४१ ॥
No one other than the god who bears the Pināka could endure the force of the thousands of nets of my arrows that I have released.

अहमेनं शरैस्तीक्ष्णैर्नयामि यमसादनम् ॥ ३.३९.४२ ॥
Whether he be a god or a yaksha, or someone other than Rudra, I will send him with sharp arrows to the abode of Yama.

व्यसृजच्छतधा राजन्मयूखानिव भास्करः ॥ ३.३९.४३ ॥
Then Jiṣṇu (Arjuna), with a gladdened mind, O king, released iron arrows that pierce the vital parts in a hundred ways, like the sun scattering its rays.
3.39.44
तान्प्रसन्नेन मनसा भगवाँल्लोकभावनः ।
शूलपाणिः प्रत्यगृह्णाच्छिलावर्षमिवाचलः ॥ ३.३९.४४ ॥
The blessed lord who sustains the worlds, the trident-bearer, with a serene mind received those arrows, as a mountain receives a shower of stones.
3.39.45
क्षणेन क्षीणबाणोऽथ संवृत्तः फल्गुनस्तदा ।
वित्रासं च जगामाथ तं दृष्ट्वा शरसंक्षयम् ॥ ३.३९.४५ ॥
In an instant Phalguna's (Arjuna's) arrows were spent, and seeing the exhaustion of his arrows, he was seized with fear.
3.39.46
चिन्तयामास जिष्णुस्तु भगवन्तं हुताशनम् ।
पुरस्तादक्षयौ दत्तौ तूणौ येनास्य खाण्डवे ॥ ३.३९.४६ ॥
Then Jiṣṇu (Arjuna) bethought himself of the blessed Hutāśana (Fire), who long before had given him two inexhaustible quivers in the Khāṇḍava forest.
3.39.47
किं नु मोक्ष्यामि धनुषा यन्मे बाणाः क्षयं गताः ।
अयं च पुरुषः कोपि बाणान्ग्रसति सर्वशः ॥ ३.३९.४७ ॥
"My arrows are spent; with what shall I shoot from this bow now? And this man, whoever he is, is swallowing all my arrows."
3.39.48
अहमेनं धनुष्कोट्या रशूलाग्रेणेव कुञ्जरम् ।
नयामि दण्डधारस्य यमस्य सदनं प्रति ॥ ३.३९.४८ ॥
"With the tip of my bow I shall lead him, as one drives an elephant with the point of a spear, toward the abode of Yama, the staff-bearer."

मुष्टिभिश्चापि हतवान्वज्रकल्पैर्महाद्युतिः ॥ ३.३९.४९ ॥
Then the greatly radiant one, seizing the end of the bow and dragging him by the bowstring as a noose, struck him with fists like thunderbolts.
3.39.50
संप्रायुध्यद्धनुष्कोट्या कौन्तेयः परवीरहा ।
तदप्यस्य धनुर्दिव्यं जग्राह गिरिगोचरः ॥ ३.३९.५० ॥
The son of Kuntī, slayer of enemy heroes, fought with the end of his bow; but the mountain-dweller seized even his divine bow.

ततोऽर्जुनो ग्रस्तधनुः खङ्गपाणिरतिष्ठत ।
युद्धस्यान्तमभीप्सन्वै वेगेनाभिजगाम तम् ॥ ३.३९.५१ ॥
Then Arjuna, his bow seized, stood with sword in hand; desiring an end to the battle, he charged swiftly at him.
3.39.52
तस्य मूर्ध्नि शितं खङ्गमसक्तं पर्वतेष्वपि ।
मुमोय भुजवीर्येण विक्रम्य कुरुनन्दनः ॥ ३.३९.५२ ॥
Upon his head the joy of the Kurus, striding forth with the might of his arms, let fall a sharp sword that could pass even unhindered through mountains.
3.39.53
तकस्य मूर्धानमासाद्य पफालासिवरो हि सः ।
ततो वृक्षैः शिलाभिश्च योधयामास फल्गुनः ॥ ३.३९.५३ ॥
Reaching the Kirāta's head, that finest of swords indeed broke apart. Then Phalguna fought him with trees and rocks.
3.39.54
तदा वृक्षान्महाकायः प्रत्यगृह्णादथो शिलाः ।
किरातरूपी भगवांस्ततः पार्थो महाबलः ॥ ३.३९.५४ ॥
Then that great-bodied one caught back the trees and rocks; and the blessed Lord in the form of a Kirāta held back Pārtha, the mighty one.
3.39.55
मुष्टिभिर्वज्रसंस्पर्शैर्धूममुत्पादयन्मुखे ।
प्रजहार दुराधर्षे किरातसमरूपिणि ॥ ३.३९.५५ ॥
With fists whose touch was like thunderbolts, producing smoke in his face, he struck the unassailable one who had the form of a Kirāta.
3.39.56
ततः शक्राशनिसमैर्मुष्टिभिर्भृशदारुणैः ।
किरातरूपी भगवानर्दयामास फल्गुनम् ॥ ३.३९.५६ ॥
Then the blessed one in the form of a Kirāta afflicted Phalguna with fists terrible as Indra's thunderbolt.
3.39.57
ततश्चटचटाशब्दः सुधोरः समजायत ।
पाण्डवस्य च मुष्टीनां किरातस् च युध्यतः ॥ ३.३९.५७ ॥
Then arose a very terrible crackling sound from the fists of the Pāṇḍava and of the Kirāta as they fought.
3.39.58
सुमुहूर्तं तयोर्युद्धमभवल्लोमहर्षणम् ।
भुजप्रहारसंयुक्तं वृत्रवासवयोरिव ॥ ३.३९.५८ ॥
Their combat lasted a long while and was hair-raising, full of blows of the arms, like the fight of Vṛtra and Vāsava (Indra).
3.39.59
महाराज ततो जिष्णुः किरातमुरसा बली ।
पाण्डवं च विचेष्टन्तं किरातोप्यहनद्बलात् ॥ ३.३९.५९ ॥
Then, O great king, the mighty victor (Arjuna) struck the Kirāta with his chest, and the Kirāta also struck the struggling Pāṇḍava with force.
3.39.60
तयोर्भुजविनिष्पेषात्संधर्षेणोरसोस्तथा ।
समजायत गात्रेषु पावकोऽङ्गारधूमवान् ॥ ३.३९.६० ॥
From the crushing of their arms and the friction of their chests, fire arose in their limbs, with embers and smoke.
3.39.61
तत एनं महादेवः पीड्य गात्रैः सुपीडितम् ।
तेजसा व्क्रमद्रोषाच्चेतस्तस्य विमोहयन् ॥ ३.३९.६१ ॥
Then the great god, pressing him thoroughly with his limbs, advanced with his brilliance and wrath and bewildered his mind.
3.39.62
ततोऽभिपीडितैर्गात्रैः पिण्डीकृत इवाबभौ ।
फल्गुनो गात्रसंरुद्धो देवदेवेन भारत ॥ ३.३९.६२ ॥
Then, pressed hard by his limbs, Phalguna appeared as if made into a ball, O Bhārata, confined within the limbs of the god of gods.
3.39.63
निरुच्छ्वासोऽभवच्चैव सन्निरुद्धो महामनाः ।
ततः पपात संमूढस्ततः प्रीतोऽभवद्भवः ॥ ३.३९.६३ ॥
Deprived of breath and completely restrained, the great-minded one fell bewildered; then Bhava was pleased.
3.39.64
स मुहूर्तं तथा भूत्वा सचेताः पुनरुत्थितः ।
रुधिरेणाप्लुताङ्गस्तु पाण्डवो भृशदुःखितः ॥ ३.३९.६४ ॥
He remained so for a moment, then regained his senses and rose again, his limbs bathed in blood, the Pāṇḍava deeply grieved.
3.39.65
शरण्यं शरणं गत्वा भगवन्तं पिनाकिनम् ।
मृन्मयं स्ण्डिलं कृत्वामाल्येनापूजयद्भवम् ॥ ३.३९.६५ ॥
Having gone for refuge to the blessed Pinākin, the one worthy of refuge, he made an altar of earth and worshipped Bhava with a garland.
3.39.66
तच्च माल्यं तदा पार्थः किरातशिरसि स्थितम् ।
अपश्यत्पाण्डवश्रेष्ठो हर्षेण प्रकृतिं गतः ॥ ३.३९.६६ ॥
And Pārtha then saw that garland placed on the Kirāta's head, and the best of the Pāṇḍavas, filled with joy, returned to his natural state.
3.39.67
पपात पादयोस्तस्य ततः प्रीतोऽभवद्भवः ।
उवाच चैनं वचसा मेघगम्भीरगीर्हसः।
जातविस्मयमालोक्य ततः क्षीणाङ्गसंहतिम् ॥ ३.३९.६७ ॥
He fell at his feet. Then Bhava (Śiva) was pleased, and with a voice deep as a cloud, smiling, he spoke to him, seeing him filled with wonder and with a wasted body.
3.39.68
भोभो फल्गुन तुष्टोस्मि कर्मणाऽप्रतिमेन ते ।
शौर्येणानेन धृत्या च क्षत्रियो नास्ति ते समः ॥ ३.३९.६८ ॥
O, O Phalguna, I am pleased with your incomparable deed. In this valour and steadfastness, there is no warrior equal to you.
3.39.69
समं तेजश्च वीर्यं च ममाद्य तव चानघ ।
प्रीतस्तेऽहं महाबाहो पश्य मां भरतर्षभ ॥ ३.३९.६९ ॥
O sinless one, today my radiance and power are equal to yours. O mighty-armed one, bull of the Bharatas, I am pleased with you; behold me.
3.39.70
ददामि ते विशालाक्ष चक्षुः पूर्वं मुनिर्भवान् ।
विजेष्यसि रणे शत्रूनपि सर्वान्दिवौकसः ॥ ३.३९.७० ॥
O wide-eyed one, I give you the divine eye. Formerly you were a sage. In battle you will conquer all your enemies, even the dwellers of heaven.
3.39.71
प्रीत्या च तेऽहं दास्यामि यदस्त्रमनिवारितम् ।
त्वं हि शक्तो मदीयं तदस्त्रं धारयितुं क्षणात् ॥ ३.३९.७१ ॥
And out of affection I will give you that irresistible weapon, for you alone are able to hold my weapon in an instant.
3.39.72
ततो देवं महादेवं गिरिशं शूनपाणिनम् ।
ददर्श फल्गुनस्तत्र सह देव्या महाद्युतिम् ॥ ३.३९.७२ ॥
Then Phalguna (Arjuna) saw there the god Mahādeva, of great splendour, with the goddess, the lord of the mountain, bearing the trident.
3.39.73
स जानुभ्यां महीं गत्वा शिरसा प्रणिपत्य च ।
प्रसादयामास हरं पार्थः परपुरंजयः ॥ ३.३९.७३ ॥
Kneeling, bowing his head to the ground, the Pārtha, conqueror of enemy cities, propitiated Hara.

देवदेव महादेव नीलग्रीव जटाधर ॥ ३.३९.७४ ॥
O Kapardin, lord of all beings, destroyer of Bhaga's eye, god of gods, great god, blue-necked one, bearer of matted locks!

देवानां च गतिं देवं त्वत्प्रसूतमिदं जगत् ॥ ३.३९.७५ ॥
I know you, the supreme cause of causes, three-eyed, all-pervading god, the refuge of the gods; this world sprang from you.

शिवाय विष्णुरूपाय विष्णवे शिवरूपिणे ॥ ३.३९.७६ ॥
You are unconquerable by the three worlds, with gods, demons and men. Homage to Śiva in the form of Viṣṇu, and to Viṣṇu in the form of Śiva.

प्रधानपुरुषातीतं परं सूक्ष्मतरं हरम् ॥ ३.३९.७९ ॥
Gaṇeśa, lord of the world, Śambhu, cause of the causes of the worlds, beyond the primal matter and the Puruṣa, supreme and most subtle Hara.

शरणं प्रतिपन्नाय तत्क्षमस्वाद्य शंकर ॥ ३.३९.८२ ॥
The clash I carried out with you out of ignorance — O Śaṅkara, forgive it today for me, who have taken refuge.

प्रगृह्य रुचिरं बाहुं क्षान्तमित्येव फल्गुनम् ॥ ३.३९.८३ ॥
Then the greatly splendid one whose banner is the bull, laughing, took his lovely arm and said to Phalguna, "Forgiven."

पुनः पार्थं सान्त्वपूर्वमुवाच वृषभध्वजः ॥ ३.३९.८४ ॥
