Arjun speaks,
"This world I can see before my eyes
vanishing in the abyss
of your mouth, among those enormous teeth
They are speedily devoured, ground, pounded
into particles and pieces,
shards remaining in the gaps.
These men now ready to fight
are all set to enter your mouth,
a conflagration all around .
Like rivers flowing down to the sea,
like fireflies fatally drawn to the flame,
with awesome speed this world of humanity
is rushing into your infinite mouths,
inexorably!
You are devouring all that is entering in,
swallowing all with your burning mouths.
O Vishnu, Your fire has encircled the world.
there is a flood, an invasion of light,
a profusion of your austere light.
O Lord of the cosmos, I bow to you in utter submission.
I have seen you in your terrible form.
I want to know who you are.
O Primeval, Prior to All,
with what propensity, what mystical intensity
you intend to proceed on your WAY.
The Lord said,
"I am Time, grown to immense magnitude,
I am ready to strike and destroy the world.
Barring you, all the warriors you see on the ground
arrayed in formidable groups
will soon be extinct without a trace.
Therefore, arise, success is yours.
Vanquish the enemy. Establish justice and a prosperous state.
Count them already dead at my hands
You are not the killer, only a trigger.
