अ॒वीरे॒ क्रतौ॒ वि द॑विद्युत॒न्नोरा॒ न मा॒युं चि॑तयन्त॒ धुन॑यः ॥- íṣurná śriyá iṣudhérasanā́ goṣā́ḥ śatasā́ ná ráṃhiḥ.
avī́re krátau ví davidyutannórā ná māyúṃ citayanta dhúnayaḥ. - Like a shaft sent for glory from the quiver, or swift-steed winning cattle winning hundreds.
The lightning seemed to flash, as cowards planned it. The minstrels bleated like a lamb in trouble.

námaste astu dhánvane bāhúbhyāmutá te námaḥ. - Homage to thy wrath, O Rudra, to thine arrow homage also;
Homage to thy bow,
And homage to thine arms.
