Translation

Com os portadores da chama e com os cantores, sempre entre os raios, com os conhecedores medidos, realizando a obra de muitos modos, ele venceu. Demolidor de fortalezas, em companheirismo com companheiros, rompeu as resistências firmes; ṛṣi entre os ṛṣi, tornou-se em nós poder de visão.
