Sanskrit Original
संभारि श्रीरघुबीर धीर पचारि कपि रावनु हन्यो। महि परत पुनि उठि लरत देवन्ह जुगल कहुँ जय जय भन्यो।। हनुमंत संकट देखि मर्कट भालु क्रोधातुर चले। रन मत्त रावन सकल सुभट प्रचंड भुज बल दलमले।।
saṃbhāri śrīraghubīra dhīra pacāri kapi rāvanu hanyō. mahi parata puni uṭhi larata dēvanha jugala kahu jaya jaya bhanyō.. hanumaṃta saṃkaṭa dēkhi markaṭa bhālu krōdhātura calē. rana matta rāvana sakala subhaṭa pracaṃḍa bhuja bala dalamalē..
Invoking the Hero of Raghu's line, the strong-minded Hanuman challenged and struck Ravana. The two fell to the ground and rising again resumed fighting. The gods shouted 'Victory' to both. Seeing Hanuman in such a strait, the monkeys and bears sallied forth in furious haste; while Ravana, who was battle-mad, crushed all the champions by the tremendous might of his arm.
