Sukta 3
वं॒शानां॑ ते॒ नह॑नानां प्राणा॒हस्य॒ तृण॑स्य च । प॒क्षाणां॑ विश्ववारे ते न॒द्धानि॒ वि चृ॑तामसि
vaṃśā́nāṃ te náhanānāṃ prāṇāhásya tṛ́ṇasya ca | pakṣā́nāṃ viśva-vāre te naddhā́ni ví cṛtāmasi
The fastenings of thy bamboos, of thy bindings that seize the breath, and of thy grass; the fastenings of thy sides, O all-warding,—those do we cut apart.
Las ataduras de tus bambúes, de tus ligaduras que apresan el aliento, y de tu hierba; las ataduras de tus costados, oh la que guarda por doquier,—esas ligaduras las cortamos y las separamos.
