Word breakdown
- प्रचण्डप्रतापप्रभावाभिभूत-
- O hero who subdued hosts of foes by fierce splendour of power,
- प्रभूतारिवीर प्रभो रामचन्द्र ।
- O Lord Ramachandra,
- बलं ते कथं वर्ण्यतेऽतीव बाल्ये
- how can your strength be told even in childhood,
- यतोऽखण्डि चण्डीशकोदण्डदण्डः
- since you broke the staff-bow of fierce Shiva?
Childhood strength that broke Shiva's bow is limila power; the hymn asks how any measure could hold it.
