Praise that speech which feeds the breast, which nourishes the growing, the begetter of bounty, older than age; which brings floods, which shines forth like the dew, the radiant giver, the disperser of gloom.
May your pious praise, oḥ worshipper, assuredly reach the thundering, roaring lord of Iḷā, who, impelling the clouds and distributing the rain, proceeds, illuminating the heaven and earth with lightning.
Now, even now, may thy fair praise, O Singer, attain Idaspati who roars and thunders, Who, rich in clouds and waters with his lightning speeds forth bedewing both the earth and heaven.
