Transliteration

sūraś cidā harito asya rīramad indrādā kaś cid bhayataja tavīyasaḥ | bhīmasya vṛṣṇo jaṭharād abhiśvaso divedive sahuriḥ stan abādhitaḥ ||

Translation

Aun el Sol resplandeciente y sus corceles veloces son puestos en movimiento por él; ante la potencia que sobrepuja de Indra, ¿quién podría mantenerse sin temor? Del vientre del Toro terrible se alza el aliento fuerte de la fuerza; día tras día el poder perdurable avanza, inconquistado.
