Transliteration

ā́ hí ṣmā yā́ti náryaś cikitvā́n hūyámānaḥ sotṛ́bhir úpa yajñám | sváśvo yó abhī́rur mányamānaḥ suṣvāṇébhiḥ mádati sáṃ ha vī́raiḥ ||

Translation

فإنه حقًّا يأتي—قوّةُ الرجولة، العارفُ—مدعوًّا من عاصري السَّوْمَة إلى اليَجْنَا (القربان المقدّس). هو ذو الخيل الحسنة، لا يهاب في اعتداده بنفسه؛ ويسكر (بسوما) مع الذين يُحسنون العصر، متّحدًا مع الـvīra (الأبطال؛ الطاقات القوية).
