ghrāvāṇo na sūrayaḥ sindhumātara ādardirāso adrayo naviśvahā | śiśūlā na krīḷayaḥ sumātaro mahāghrāmo nayāmannuta tviṣā

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.
