श्रि॒ये मर्या॑सो अ॒ञ्जीँर॑कृण्वत सु॒मारु॑तं॒ न पू॒र्वीरति॒ क्षपः॑ । दि॒वस्पु॒त्रास॒ एता॒ न ये॑तिर आदि॒त्यास॒स्ते अ॒क्रा न वा॑वृधुः
śriye maryāso añjīm̐rakṛṇvata sumārutaṃ na pūrvīrati kṣapaḥ divasputrāsa etā na yetira ādityāsaste akrā na vāvṛdhuḥ
They adorned the glorious Maruts for splendour; those swift ones did not previously break like Kshapa. These are sons of Dyaus; they are not like the first-born of Aditya, nor did they expand in vain.
The destructive (Maruts) made ornaments for their decoration many hostile hosts cannot overcomethe band of Maruts; the moving sons of heaven do not issue forth, the swift-going sons of Aditi do not increase (inglory).
The youths have wrought their ornaments for glory through many nights,-this noble band of Maruts. Like stags the Sons of Dyatis have striven onward, the Sons of Aditi grown strong like pillars.
