वि ये भ्राजन्ते सुमखास ऋष्टिभिः प्रच्यावयन्तो अच्युता चिदोजसा । मनोजुवो यन्मरुतो रथेष्वा वृषव्रातासः पृषतीरयुग्ध्वम् ॥

ví yé bhrā́jante súmakhāsa ṛṣṭíbhīḥ prá cyāváyanto acyútā cid ójasā | manójavo yán maruto rathéṣv ā́ vṛ́ṣavrātāsaḥ pṛ́ṣatīr áyugdhvam ||

যে সুমুখ (সুন্দর-মুখ) মরুতেরা তাদের ঋষ্টি (বল্লম) সহ দীপ্ত হয়ে ওঠে, তারা নিজেদের বল দ্বারা অচলকেও কাঁপিয়ে দেয়। হে মরুতগণ, যখন তোমরা মনোজব (মন-গতিসম্পন্ন) হয়ে রথে চিতাবর্ণ অশ্বদের যোজনা কর, তখন তোমরা বৃষ-ব্রাত (বৃষভ-সমূহ) সদৃশ, অজেয় সংকল্পে অগ্রসর হয়ে আস।
