आ ये रजां॑सि॒ तवि॑षीभि॒रव्य॑त॒ प्र व॒ एवा॑सः॒ स्वय॑तासो अध्रजन् । भय॑न्ते॒ विश्वा॒ भुव॑नानि ह॒र्म्या चि॒त्रो वो॒ यामः॒ प्रय॑तास्वृ॒ष्टिषु॑
ā ye rajāṃsi taviṣībhiravyata pra va evāsaḥ svayatāso adhrajan bhayante viśvā bhuvanāni harmyā citro vo yāmaḥ prayatāsvṛṣṭiṣu
Those whom you, like poisonous winds, pursued with assaults, they left their homes and fled; all worlds fear you, wondrous ones—your paths move in the courses of storms.
Those, your coursers, which traverse the regions in their speed, proceed, self-guided; all worlds, all dwellings, are alarmed, for marvellous is your coming; (such fear as is felt) when spears are thrust forth (in battle).
Ye who with mighty powers have stirred the regions up, your coursers have sped forth directed by themselves. All creatures of the earth, all dwellings are afraid, for brilliant is your coming with your spears advanced.
