प्र रेभ एत्यति वारमव्ययं वृषा वनेष्वव चक्रदद्धरिः । सं धीतयो वावशाना अनूषत शिशुं रिहन्ति मतयः पनिप्नतम् ॥

Transliteration

prá rebhá éty áti vā́ram avyáyaṃ vṛ́ṣā váneṣv áva cakradad háriḥ | sáṃ dhītáyo vāvaśānā́ anūṣata śíśuṃ rihanti matáyaḥ pánipnatam ||

Translation

Forward the inspired one goes, beyond the imperishable sieve; the Bull, the tawny force, cries out in the woods of being. The awakened thoughts chant together; the intentions lick and nurture the child, growing in secret intensity.
