After thee the strong deer-bull strode, with four feet stepping down. With the horn, cast forth asunder that which is fastened—this kṣetriya that lies within his heart.
Sesudahmu rusa-jantan yang kuat melangkah, dengan empat kaki menjejak. Dengan tanduk, hamburkan dan buanglah yang melekat itu—kṣetriya yang berada di dalam hatinya.
