Up rose the wave and quelled the waters; she loosened out the yoked pair of draught‑beasts. They, in their might, struck down the barren ones and the ruthless.

Let your waves (rivers) so flow that the pin of the yoke may be above (their) waters; leave the traces full, and may (the two streams), exempt from misfortune or defect, and uncensured, exhibit no (present) increase.

So let your wave bear up the pins, and ye, O Waters, spare the thongs; And never may the pair of Bulls, harmless and sinless, waste away.
