Traducción
When Dhruva Mahārāja heard of the killing of his brother Uttama by the Yakṣas in the Himālaya Mountains, being overwhelmed with lamentation and anger, he got on his chariot and went out for victory over the city of the Yakṣas, Alakāpurī.
Cuando se enteró de que los yakṣas habían matado a su hermano Uttama en los Himālayas, Dhruva Mahārāja, dominado por la ira y la lamentación, montó en su cuadriga y partió a la conquista de Alakāpurī, la ciudad de los yakṣas.

Significado
Dhruva Mahārāja’s becoming angry, overwhelmed with grief, and envious of the enemies was not incompatible with his position as a great devotee. It is a misunderstanding that a devotee should not be angry, envious or overwhelmed by lamentation. Dhruva Mahārāja was the king, and when his brother was unceremoniously killed, it was his duty to take revenge against the Yakṣas from the Himālayas.
La ira de Dhruva Mahārāja, el pesar que le sobrecogió, y el odio que sintió contra sus enemigos, no eran incompatibles con su posición como gran devoto. Se equivoca quien piense que el devoto no debe enfurecerse, ni sentir odio, ni deshacerse en lamentos. Ante la indigna muerte de su hermano, Dhruva Mahārāja, como rey, tenía el deber de vengarse de los yakṣas de los Himālayas.
