चण्डनक्रग्रहम् crocodiles which can catch any animal, घोरम् terrific, दिवसक्ष्ये during at the end of the day, क्षपादौ when night sets in , फेनौघैः foamy waters, हसन्तमिव as if laughing, ऊर्मिभिः waves, नृत्यन्तमिव as if dancing

As the day was ending and night was setting in, the ocean filled with crocodiles which could catch any animal looked terrific and its waves seemed as if it were laughing and dancing.
