उ॒त स्मा॑स्य॒ द्रुव॑तस्तुरण्य॒तः प॒र्णं न वेरनु॑वाति प्रग॒र्धिन॑: । श्ये॒नस्ये॑व॒ ध्रज॑तो अङ्क॒सं परि॑ दधि॒क्राव्ण॑: स॒होर्जा तरि॑त्रत॒: स्वाहा॑

Transliteration

utá smā́syá drúvatas turaṇyatáḥ párṇaṃ ná vér ánvavāti pragardhínaḥ | śyenásyeva dhrájató aṅkásaṃ pári dadhikrā́vṇaḥ sáhorjā́ tárītrataḥ svā́hā

Translation

আর যে স্থির ও দ্রুত বেগে ধাবিত হয়, তার পশ্চাতে প্রবল ঝঞ্ঝা ধাওয়া করে—যেন পাখির পেছনে একটি পাতা উড়ে চলে। উড্ডীয়মান শ্যেন (বাজ)-এর নত ঝাঁপের মতো দধিক্রাবন তাকে চারিদিক থেকে পরিবেষ্টন করেন—বল ও ধারণকারী তেজে, পার করিয়ে দেওয়া ত্রাতা-সদৃশ: স্বাহা।
