यो अद्य सेन्यो वधो जिघांसन् न उदीरते । इन्द्रस्य तत्र बाहू समन्तं परि दद्मः
yó adyá senyó vadhó jighā́ṃsan na udī́rate | índrasya tátra bāhū́ samantáṃ párि dadmaḥ
What warlike slaughter, fain to slay, is to-day uplifted against us—there we set, all round about, the arms of Indra.
যে যুদ্ধজনিত হত্যালিপ্সু বধ আজ আমাদের বিরুদ্ধে উঠেছে—সেই স্থানে আমরা চারদিকে ইন্দ্রের বাহু স্থাপন করি।
