By swift chariots or by the rays of the sun the lightnings are yoked. Or by the Maruts is the glory harnessed, mighty artisans; these forces shone forth today with splendour.
He who (goes) with sacred (rays), as if with self-harnessed, well-governed (steeds), who shines like lightning with his own scorching (flames), who impairs the vigour of the Maruts, he glows radiant and rapid as the wide-shining sun.
Who, with supporting streams and rays that suit him, hath flashed like lightning with his native vigour. Like the deft Maker of the band of Maruts, the bright impetuous One hath shone refulgent.
