sá yó vṛ́ṣā narā́ṃ ná rodasyoḥ śrávobhir ásti jīvápīta-sargaḥ | prá yáḥ sasrāṇáḥ śiśrīta yónau ||
Translation
Il est le Taureau, viril dans les deux mondes ; il subsiste par ses puissances de gloire lumineuse ; il est celui qui donne l’effusion de la boisson de vie. Lui qui s’écoule au-dehors s’est établi dans le sein-source.
