Bhagavad Gita Chapter 11 Verse 25
भगवद् गीता अध्याय 11 श्लोक 25

दंष्ट्राकरालानि च ते मुखानि
दृष्ट्वैव कालानलसन्निभानि।
दिशो न जाने न लभे च शर्म
प्रसीद देवेश जगन्निवास।।11.25।।



English Translation - Swami Sivananda
11.25 Having seen Thy mouths fearful with teeth (blazing) like the fires of cosmic dissolution, I know not the four arters, nor do I find peace. Have mercy, O Lord of the gods, O abode of the universe.


English Translation of Sanskrit Commentary By Sri Shankaracharya's

Therefore, prasida, be gracious; devesa, O Lord of gods; jagannivasa, O Abode of the Universe!
The apprehension which was there of my getting defeated by those offers, that too has cleared away, since-
