यथा वृकाद् अजावयो धावन्ति बहु बिभ्यतीः । एव त्वं दुन्दुभे ऽमित्रान् अभि क्रन्द प्र त्रासयाथो चित्तानि मोहय ॥५॥
yathā vṛkād ajāvayo dhāvanti bahu bibhyatīḥ | eva tvaṃ dundubhe 'mitrān abhi kranda pra trāsayātho cittāni mohaya ||5||
Devanagari rendered by HREEM from the edition's roman (IAST) text; the IAST is the edition's own.
As the goats-and-sheep run greatly fearing the wolf, so do thou, O drum etc. etc.
