न क्षोणीभ्यां परिभ्वे त इन्द्रियं न समुद्रैः पर्वतैरिन्द्र ते रथः । न ते वज्रमन्वश्नोति कश्चन यदाशुभिः पतसि योजना पुरु ॥
Transliteration
ná kṣoṇī́bhyāṃ paribhvé ta indríyaṃ ná samudráiḥ párvatair indra te ráthaḥ | ná te vájram ánv aśnoti káś caná yad āśúbhiḥ pátasi yójanā purú ||
Translation
Dua dunia tak mampu melingkupi kedahsyatanmu, wahai Indra; samudra dan gunung pun tak dapat mengekang keretamu. Tiada seorang pun dapat menyusul vajramu, ketika bersama yang cepat engkau melesat melintasi banyak yojana.
