ਕਰਿਯੋ ਬਿਸਨ ਬੀਚਾਰ ਚਿਤੰ ਅਨੂਪੰ ॥੧॥

kariyo bisan beechaar chita(n) anoopa(n) ||1||

But once Vishnu reflected upon a unique idea in his mind that this king is without elephants, horses and jewels (therefore something should be done in this direction).1.

Considering this gathering as some stratagem against them, the proud demons also gathered together.2.

ਸਬੋ ਬਾਤ ਮਾਨੀ ਯਹੇ ਕਾਮ ਕੀਬੋ ॥

Now both the groups decided that whatever shall be attained, the same shall be distributed equally. All of them agreed on this proposal and the work was begun

ਕਰੋ ਮਥਨੀ ਕੂਟ ਮੰਦ੍ਰਾਚਲੇਯੰ ॥

karo mathanee kooT ma(n)dhraachaleya(n) ||

ਤਕ੍ਰਯੋ ਛੀਰ ਸਾਮੁੰਦ੍ਰ ਦੇਅੰ ਅਦੇਯੰ ॥੩॥

Both the gods and demons settled the programme of churning the milk-ocean, making churning-stick of the Mandrachal mountain.3.

ਕਰੀ ਮਥਕਾ ਬਾਸਕੰ ਸਿੰਧ ਮਧੰ ॥

karee mathakaa baasaka(n) si(n)dh madha(n) ||

ਮਥੈ ਲਾਗ ਦੋਊ ਭਏ ਅਧੁ ਅਧੰ ॥

ਉਠੇ ਕਾਪ ਬੀਰੰ ਦਿਤ੍ਰਯਾਦਿਤ੍ਰਯ ਸਬੰ ॥

auThe kaap beera(n) dhitrayaadhitray saba(n) ||

Now they reflected on this idea as to who can be the mighty hero, who can endure the load of the mountain (because a base was required for the purpose)? Hearing this Ditya, Aditya etc., the heroes shuddered, faltering in absurd prattle.

ਤਬੈ ਆਪ ਹੀ ਬਿਸਨ ਮੰਤ੍ਰੰ ਬਿਚਾਰਿਯੋ ॥

tabai aap hee bisan ma(n)tra(n) bichaariyo ||

ਤਰੇ ਪਰਬਤੰ ਕਛਪੰ ਰੂਪ ਧਾਰਿਯੋ ॥੫॥

tare parabata(n) kachhapa(n) roop dhaariyo ||5||

Then observing this difficulty of both the gods and demons, Vishnu himself thought about it and transforming himself in the form of Kachh (tortoise), seated himself at the base of the mountain.5.

ਇਤਿ ਸ੍ਰੀ ਬਚਿਤ੍ਰ ਨਾਟਕ ਗ੍ਰੰਥੇ ਕਛੁ ਦੁਤੀਆ ਅਉਤਾਰ ਬਰਨਨੰ ਸੰਪੂਰਨਮ ਸਤੁ ਸੁਭਮ ਸਤੁ ॥੨॥

kab sayaam kavitan madh kathiyo ||

Both the gods and demons unitedly churned the ocean, which hath been narrated in verse by the poet Shyam.
