Srimad-Bhagavatam: Canto 7 - Chapter 1 - Verse 30

Sanskrit:

संरम्भदुष्प्रेक्ष्यकराललोचनोव्यात्ताननान्तं विलिहन्स्वजिह्वया ।असृग्लवाक्तारुणकेशराननोयथान्त्रमाली द्विपहत्यया हरि: ॥ ३० ॥

ITRANS:

saṁrambha-duṣprekṣya-karāla-locanovyāttānanāntaṁ vilihan sva-jihvayāasṛg-lavāktāruṇa-keśarānanoyathāntra-mālī dvipa-hatyayā hariḥ

Translation:

Lord Nṛsiṁhadeva’s mouth and mane were sprinkled with drops of blood, and His fierce eyes, full of anger, were impossible to look at. Licking the edge of His mouth with His tongue, the Supreme Personality of Godhead, Nṛsiṁhadeva, decorated with a garland of intestines taken from Hiraṇyakaśipu’s abdomen, resembled a lion that has just killed an elephant.

Purport:

The hair on Lord Nṛsiṁhadeva’s face, being sprinkled with drops of blood, was reddish and looked very beautiful. Lord Nṛsiṁhadeva pierced Hiraṇyakaśipu’s abdomen with His nails, pulled out the demon’s intestines and wore them as a garland, which enhanced His beauty. Thus the Lord became very fearsome, like a lion engaged in fighting an elephant.
