Transliteration

áitān ratheṣu tasthúṣaḥ káḥ śuśrāva kathā́ yayuḥ | kásmai sasruḥ sudā́se ánv ā́paya iḷā́bhir vṛṣṭáyaḥ sahá ||

Translation

Ceux-ci qui se tiennent sur leurs chars — qui a entendu parler d’eux, et comment se sont-ils mis en marche ? Vers qui se sont-ils élancés ? À la suite de Sudāsa, les eaux aux puissances nourricières, les pluies ensemble, se déversent en flots.
