Your deevice, Mitra and Varuṇa, is manifested in heaven, when the light (that is) the sun, your wonderful weapon, moves (in the firmament); him you invest in the sky with the cloud (and) with rain; and (your) sweet drops, Parjanya, fall (at their desire).
Your magic, Mitra-Varuna, resteth in the heaven. The Sun, the wondrous weapon, cometh forth as light. Ye hide him in the sky with cloud and flood of rain, and water-drops, Parjanya! full of sweetness flow.
