प॒द्भिः से॒दिम॑व॒क्राम॒न्निरां॒ जङ्घा॑भिरुत्खि॒दन्। श्रमे॑णान॒ड्वान् की॒लालं॑ की॒नाश॑श्चाभि ग॑च्छतः

With feet he setteth to his stepping, sound of limb; with shanks he teareth up the soil. By toil the draught-ox and the ploughman go together toward the sweet yield.
किसान अपने पैर से चले और टांगें ताकत से चलाए। बैल और किसान दोनों मेहनत करते हैं। दोनों मिलके खेत जोते हैं। फिर अच्छी फसल मिलने तक साथ में चलते हैं।
