Verse 15

Tap any word for its meaning.

। ॥

In plain words

One face, no longer dwelling in Umā's lap, no śakti spear in your hand, a mortal state, and at your sides no bannered army of gods: this disguise is enough indeed to cover the simple eyes of those who live on earth. But where, O foe of Tāraka, will you go into hiding from the one who shared your mother's milk?

This disguise indeed is enough to cover the simple eyes of those who live on earth; but where will you go into hiding, O foe of Tāraka, from the sharer of your mother's milk?
