Translation

Bagaikan kuda yang telah dipasangi kekang, melesatlah menuju kelimpahan daya; wahai Indu, sucikanlah dirimu ke dalam perut Indra. Bagaikan perahu menyeberangi sungai, engkau melintas dengan mengetahui jalan; bagaikan pahlawan yang bertempur, halaukanlah dari kami cercaan-cercaan musuh.
