Shri Narsimha Stuti - Narsimha pulverises the chest of Hiranyakashipu

udaya ravi sahasra dyotitam ruksa viksam

pralaya jaladhi nadam kalpa krd vahni vaktram

sura pati ripu vaksah ksoda rakta ksitangam

pranata bhaya haram tam nrsimham namami

"Lord Nrsimhadeva's countenance is as brilliantly illuminated as thousands of suns rising together. He vibrates a roaring sound like that of the waters of the ocean of universal devastation, as if He Himself is prepared to create a new era by destroying the universe. His face is like fire, and His body is spattered with drops of blood as He pulverizes the chest of the enemy of Indra. Unto that Lord Nrsimhadeva, who removes the fear of the surrendered, I offer my obeisances."

[Shri Narsimha Stuti, Verse 1]
