Mountains tremble and trees bend; the Maruts drive them like a fierce wind. The gods, like all the allies, are aroused by the Maruts’ mighty onslaught.
They make the mountains tremble, they drive apart the forest-trees. Go, divine Maruts, whither you will, with all your progeny, like those intoxicated.
They make the mountains rock and reel, they rend the forest-kings apart. onward, ye Maruts, drive, like creatures drunk with wine, ye, Gods with all your company.
