ਅਥ ਨਉਦਨ ਕਾ ਜੁਧ ਬਰਨਨੰ ॥

Atha Naudan Kaa Judha Barnnaan ॥

Here begins the Description of the Battle of Nadaun:

ਬਹੁਤ ਕਾਲ ਇਹ ਭਾਂਤਿ ਬਿਤਾਯੋ ॥

Bahuta Kaal Eih Bhaanti Bitaayo ॥

ਮੀਆ ਖਾਨ ਜੰਮੂ ਕਹ ਆਯੋ ॥

Meeaa Khaan Jaanmoo Kaha Aayo ॥

Much time passed in this way, Mian Khan came (from Delhi) to Jammu (for collection of revenue).

ਅਲਿਫ ਖਾਨ ਨਾਦੌਣ ਪਠਾਵਾ ॥

Alipha Khaan Naadouna Patthaavaa ॥

ਭੀਮਚੰਦ ਤਨ ਬੈਰ ਬਢਾਵਾ ॥੧॥

Bheemachaanda Tan Bari Badhaavaa ॥1॥

He sent Alif Khan to Nadaun, who developed enmity towards Bhim Chand (the Chief of Kahlur).1.

ਜੁਧ ਕਾਜ ਨ੍ਰਿਪ ਹਮੈ ਬੁਲਾਯੋ ॥

Judha Kaaja Nripa Hamai Bulaayo ॥

ਆਪਿ ਤਵਨ ਕੀ ਓਰ ਸਿਧਾਯੋ ॥

Aapi Tavan Kee Aor Sidhaayo ॥

Bhim Chnad called me for assistance and himself went to face (the enemy).

ਤਿਨ ਕਠਗੜ ਨਵਰਸ ਪਰ ਬਾਧੋ ॥

Tin Katthagarha Navarsa Par Baadho ॥

ਤੀਰ ਤੁਫੰਗ ਨਰੇਸਨ ਸਾਧੋ ॥੨॥

Teera Tuphaanga Naresan Saadho ॥2॥

Alif Khan prepared a wooden fort of the hill of Navras. The hill-chief also prepared their arrows and guns.2.
