नि ये रिणन्त्योजसा वृथा गावो न दुर्धुरः । अश्मानं चित्स्वर्यं पर्वतं गिरिं प्र च्यावयन्ति यामभिः ॥
Transliteration
ní yé riṇánty ójasā vṛ́thā gā́vo ná durdhúraḥ | áśmānaṃ cit svaryáṃ párvataṃ giríṃ prá cyāvayanti yā́mabhiḥ ||
Translation
Mereka menekan turun dengan kekuatan mereka, seperti kawanan sapi yang tak dapat ditahan. Bahkan batu yang mengarah ke langit, gunung, bukit—mereka menggerakkannya dengan lintasan-lintasan mereka. Demikian pula mereka menggoyahkan rintangan yang mengeras dalam diri kami dan membuat jalan bergerak.
