Sukta 7
अ॒दो यद॑व॒रोच॑ते॒ चतु॑ष्पक्षमिव च्छ॒दिः । तेना॑ ते॒ सर्वं॑ क्षेत्रि॒यमङ्गे॑भ्यो नाशयामसि
adó yád avaróc̣ate catúṣpakṣam iva chadíḥ | ténā te sárvaṁ kṣétriyam áṅgebhyo nāśayāmasi |
That which gleams forth yonder, like a four-winged covering—therewith for thee we make to perish the whole kṣetriya from thy limbs.
To, co jaśnieje tam w oddali, jak czteroskrzydłe przykrycie - tym dla ciebie sprawiamy, by zginęło całe kṣetriya z twoich członków.
