Translation
Śrī Vṛtrāsura said: He who has killed a brāhmaṇa, he who has killed his spiritual master — indeed, he who has killed my brother — is now, by good fortune, standing before me face to face as my enemy. O most abominable one, when I pierce your stonelike heart with my trident, I shall be freed from my debt to my brother.
Translation (Visvanatha Cakravarti Thakura)
Vṛtrāsura said: My enemy, who has killed a brāhmaṇa, his guru, and my brother, is now, by good fortune, standing before me. O most abominable one! Today, by good fortune, when I pierce your stone-like heart with my trident, I shall soon be freed from my debt to my brother.
I will be free of debt today by you whose stone-like heart will be pierced by my trident.
