हिमेव पर्णा मुषिता वनानि बर्हस्पतिनाक्र्पयद वलो गाः | अनानुक्र्त्यमपुनश्चकार यात सूर्यामासा मिथौच्चरातः

himeva parṇā muṣitā vanāni bṛhaspatinākṛpayad valo ghāḥ | anānukṛtyamapunaścakāra yāt sūryāmāsā mithauccarātaḥ
English Translation (Griffith)
As trees for foliage robbed by winter, Vala mourned for the cows Bṛhaspati had taken. He did a deed ne’er done, ne’er to be equalled, whereby the Sun and Moon ascend alternate.
