Simple Translation
2071. Her mother says,
“He, the generous lord, burned the southern Lankā
and destroyed the wealth of the Rakshasā Rāvana
who carried a shining sword and drove his chariot heroically.
He cut off the thousand arms of Vānāsuran,
and as a dwarf, he measured the world with one foot
and crossed the earth with the other.
He, ruler of the world, swallowed the earth, spat it out
and kept it again in his stomach and protects it.
My daughter praises his divine names always
and we can only say that she must have done marvellous tapas
to praise his names always on this earth.
