179 Lakhan samujhAwain Kshatrió ko :-"Yaro, sharam tumhare bath. Muhara maro tum Chaunda ko, duhari talabain deun baphAi." Said Lakhan to the Kshatriyas : "My friends, my honour is in your hands. If you slay Chaund&, I will double your pay.”

Kanwajwäre man ke bárhe, jin nirlobh kari talwar. Bhaje sipahi Chaundawale : tab Chaunda ne kahi sunai The men of Kanauj were encouraged, who had used their swords without interest: Chaunda's men took to flight : then spake Chaunda :
181 "Das das rupiya ke chákar hain : náhaq dariho inhen katas! Hamari tumhari hoe lardi : dekhen kah& karain Bhagwan." · These are servants for ten rupees : you are killing them for nothing. Let the fight be between you and me : let us see what the Lord will do."
182
Lakhan jawab dayo Chaunda ko :"Niki kaht, ChaundiyA RAI Chot agmani Chaunda kori le, aur man ki hanse lewa bujhat." Lakhan made answer to Chaunda :-"Chaunda Rai's word is right: Aim first at my breast, O Chaunda, and satisfy the desire of your heart."
183 Chaunda ne tab gurj uthâyo, aur LAkhan par dayo ohalal. Gurj ki chot lagi hauda par; dhakka lagi Kannaují kyår. Then Chaund& raised his mace and aimed at Lakhan. The mace struck the haudd and shook the king of Kanaaj (Lakhan).

187 "Garai chot kart Chaunda ne ; lagi gh&wi kareje m&nbió.". LAkhan lalkAro Chaunda ko “Bakleshi, khabandAr jao." “Chaunda gave me a deep wound: the wound has reached my heart." Then Lakhan shouted to ChaundA : " Leader, have a care."
188 Taulí ke bhala Lakhan mare, laike Ajaipal ko nám. Bhala lagyo ikdanta ke, wah gir paryo dharani bhahrál. Weighing his spear well Lakhan struck, taking the name of Ajaipal. The spear struck the one-toothed one, and he fell to the ground at once,
