And countless Vánars fell and died,

And mangled limbs and corpses lay

To mark the chief's ensanguined way,

Sugríva saw them fall or fly

When fierce Narántak's steed was nigh,

And marked the giant where he sped

O'er heaps of dying or of dead.

He bade the royal Angad face

That bravest chief of giant race.

As springs the sun from clouds dispersed,
