द्र॒प्सः स॑मु॒द्रम॒भि यज्जिगा॑ति॒ पश्य॒न्गृध्र॑स्य॒ चक्ष॑सा॒ विध॑र्मन् । भा॒नुः शु॒क्रेण॑ शो॒चिषा॑ चका॒नस्तृ॒तीये॑ चक्रे॒ रज॑सि प्रि॒याणि॑
drapsaḥ samudramabhi yajjigāti paśyangṛdhrasya cakṣasā vidharman bhānuḥ śukreṇa śociṣā cakānastṛtīye cakre rajasi priyāṇi
From the sea the droplet sped that flew, seen by the vulture's eye. The radiant one with shining sorrow lamented; on the third he made a path in rajas, beloved.
When (Vena as) the drop of rain approaches the firmament, contemplating (all things) with the eye ofthe hawk in the supporting (firmament), then the sun, shining with brilliant radiance, makes the precious(showers) in the third sphere.
When as a spark he cometh near the ocean, still looking with a vulture's eye to heaven, His lustre, joying in its own bright splendour, maketh dear glories in the lowest region.
