Transliteration

prānyac cakram avṛhaḥ sūryasya kutsāyānyad varivo yātave akaḥ | anāso dasyū̃r amṛṇo vadhena ni duryoṇa āvṛṇaṅ mṛdhra-vācaḥ ||

Translation

Arrancaste uma roda do Sol, e para Kutsa fizeste outra — um amplo caminho para a jornada. Aos Dasyu sem nariz esmagaste com teu golpe; encerraste-os no ventre maligno das trevas, os de fala pervertida, para que o verdadeiro caminho da luz seguisse adiante.
