Simple Translation

[all those (explained in previous SlOkam)] are entering in your mouths which are terrifying due to have having curved teeth. Some of them are seen to be hanging in the gaps between the teeth with their heads severed.

Rendering based on ALkoNdavilli gOvindhAchArya swAmy’s English translation of gIthA bhAshyam

‘Are fast speeding into Your mouths, terrific with terrific teeth. Some are seen, heads caught between the teeth and ground to dust.’

Duryodhana and others, these sons of Dhṛitarāshtra, —Bhīshma and Droṇa, and Karṇa, the Sūta’s son, with their party composed of the lords of earth, together with some of our chief warriors, are (seen) propelled to rush into Your mouths for perishment,— Your mouths, striking fear, and terrific with tushes. Some are found, heads caught between Your teeth and pulverized.
