Cattle and mountains, not the suns; the river-mother Sindhu brought forth wealth; the mountains did not encompass all. Young spears do not play; great mothers, great villages do not drive away your poison.

Having streams for mothers like the grinding-stones which send forth moisture; ever destroying(enemies) like destructive thunderbolts; having tender mothers like sportive infants; (endowed) with splendourlike a great crowd of men in a procession.

Born from the stream, like press-stones are the Princes, for ever like the stones that crush in pieces; Sons of a beauteous Dame, like playful children, like a great host upon the march with splendour.
