ditir uvaca
esa mam tvat-krte vidvan
kama atta-sarasanah
dunoti dinam vikramya
rambham iva matangajah
Translation by His Divine Grace A. C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Srila Prabhupada:
In that place the beautiful Diti expressed her desire: O learned one, Cupid is taking his arrows and distressing me forcibly, as a mad elephant troubles a banana tree.
Purport by His Divine Grace A. C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Srila Prabhupada:
Beautiful Diti, seeing her husband absorbed in trance, began to speak loudly, not attempting to attract him by bodily expressions. She frankly said that her whole body was distressed by sex desire because of her husband’s presence, just as a banana tree is troubled by a mad elephant. It was not natural for her to agitate her husband when he was in trance, but she could not control her strong sexual appetite. Her sex desire was like a mad elephant, and therefore it was the prime duty of her husband to give her all protection by fulfilling her desire.
