हाहाकारो महानासीद् रोदस्योः सर्वतो दिशम् ।
निगृह्यमाणे ऽसुरपतौ विष्णुना प्रभविष्णुना ॥ २७ ॥
haha-karah-a tumultuous roar of lamentation; mahan-great; asit-there was; rodasyoh-in both the lower and upper planetary systems; sarvatah-everywhere; disam-all directions; nigrhyamane-because of being suppressed; asura-patau-when Bali Maharaja, the King of the demons; visnuna-by Lord Visnu; prabhavisnuna-who is the most powerful everywhere.
When Bali Maharaja was thus arrested by Lord Visnu, who is the most powerful, there was a great roar of lamentation in all directions throughout the upper and lower planetary systems of the universe.
