Chapter 2: Killing of the armies of Mahishasura.

31.  Sammanitha nanadhochaisa attahasam muhur muhu,

       Thasya nadena gorena kruthsnama pooritham nabha.

 Thus presented by many other ornaments and weapons by other devas, she again and again shouted with powerful laugh and the entire sky was filled her sound.

32.  Amayathathi mahatha prathi sabhdho mahanabhooth,

       Chukshubhu sakala loka samudhrascha chakambhire.

 That great sound produced great echo and the entire earth and ocean shook because of that.

33.  Chachala vasudha chelu, sakalascha mahidhara,

       Jayethi devascha mudha thamoochu simha vahine.

 The earth shook, all the mountains trembled and all the gods wished victory to that goddess who was riding on a lion.

34.  Thushtuvur munayaschainaam bhakthi namrathma moorthaya,

       Drushtwa samastham samkshubdham trilokya amararaya.

35.  Sanadhakhila sainyasthe samuthasthadhurudhayudha.

Sages praised with humility born of devotion and the enemies of devas (Mahisha and others) seeing the entire world is tumultuous rose up along with the ever-ready armies and with weapons held aloft.
