नारद उवाच ॥ हे हरे त्वं महादुष्टः कपटी विश्वमोहनः ॥ परोत्साहं न सहसे मायावी मलिनाशयः ॥ ६ ॥
Nārada said: O Viṣṇu, you are extremely wicked, deceptive enchanter of the world. You are unable to brook others’ enthusiastic success. You dabble in illusory tactics and your intentions are always dirty.
english translation
मोहिनीरूपमादाय कपटं कृतवान्पुरा ॥ असुरेभ्योऽपाययस्त्वं वारुणीममृतं न हि ॥७॥
Formerly you assumed the form of an enchantress[1] and showed your deceptive power. You made the demons drink liquor and not the nectar.
english translation
चेत्पिबेन्न विषं रुद्रो दयां कृत्वा महेश्वरः ॥ भवेन्नष्टाऽखिला माया तव व्याजरते हरे ॥ ८ ॥
If out of pity Śiva had not drunk poison[2], O Viṣṇu, all your illusory tactics would have been quelled since you take pleasure only in deception.
english translation
गतिस्स कपटा तेऽतिप्रिया विष्णो विशेषतः ॥ साधुस्वभावो न भवान्स्वतंत्रः प्रभुणा कृतः ॥९॥
O Viṣṇu, a deceptive path is extremely attractive to you. You had never been of saintly nature, but the lord made you free from control.
