Translation and purport composed by disciples of Śrīla Prabhupāda


TRANSLATION

As a lion drags a dead elephant, the Lord then dragged Kaṁsa's dead body along the ground in full view of everyone present. O King, all the people in the arena tumultuously cried out, "Oh! Oh!"


PURPORT

Śrīla Viśvanātha Cakravartī explains that many people in the audience thought Kaṁsa had simply been knocked unconscious when thrown from the lofty dais. Therefore Lord Kṛṣṇa dragged his corpse so everyone would realize that the evil King was indeed dead. Thus the exclamation hā hā indicates how surprised the people were that the King was suddenly dead and gone.

The audience's astonishment is also mentioned in the Viṣṇu Purāṇa:

tato hāhā-kṛtaṁ sarvam
āsīt tad-raṅga-maṇḍalam
avajñayā hataṁ dṛṣṭvā
kṛṣṇena mathureśvaram

"Then the entire arena became filled with cries of astonishment as the people saw that the master of Mathurā had been contemptuously killed by Kṛṣṇa."
