shrI hari vAyu gurubhyO namaH

 

 Translation by Scholars of Sri Madhwacharya Seva Sangha, Chennai

 

 mamarshha sarvacheshhTitaM sa raxasAM nirAmayaH |

baloddhatashcha kautukAt.h pradagdhumeva tAM purIm.h || 7-44||

 

Word to word meaning:

saH cha = And he (Hanuman)

baloddhatashcha = who was supremely powerful

mamarshha = tolerated

sava cheshhTitaM = all their nefarious act

nirAmayaH = with no sign of panic (quietly)

kautukAt.h = all this was due to his anxiety & eagerness

eva pradagdhuM = only to burn down

tAM purIM = the city (of Lanka)

 

Translation:

Hanuman with his supreme strength stood untouched & allowed Rakshasas to meddle with his tail

since with that he could burn the city of Lanka.

 

Explanatory Notes:

When Brahma Astra itself could not affect him what to speak about this little meddling of his tail.

He kept silent since he planned to destroy Lanka with this fire.

kR^itastu api = Although the city was the creation

vishvakarmaNaH = of Visvakarma

adahyata = it was burnt

asya = by his

tejasA = splendour (power)

 

Translation:

With the fire in his tail Hanuman, made the city Lanka go into flames.Although the city had been

built by Vishwakarma, it could not withstand the heat & fury of the fire from his tail, because of his

splendour.

 

Explanatory notes:

The city of Lanka built by Viswakarma, the divine Architect, by the orders of Brahma, was said to

be fireproof. But that it caught fire from the tail of Hanuman & was reduced to ashes suggests his

extraordinary strength & greatness.

with full satisfaction roared like a lion.
