prá cakre sáhasā sáho babháñja manyúm ójasā | víśve te indra pṛtanā́yavo yáho ní vṛkṣā́ iva yemire ||
Translation
آپ نے اپنی طاقت کو طاقت سے حرکت میں لایا، زور سے آپ نے پریشان کرنے والے غصے کو توڑا۔ آپ کے تمام جنگجو، اے اندر، گر جاتے ہیں، جیسے کٹے ہوئے درخت، جب وہ آپ کی فتح مندانہ پیش قدمی کی صرف طاقت کا سامنا کرتے ہیں۔
