करीळन नो रश्म आ भुवः सम भस्मना वायुना वेविदानः | ता अस्य सन धर्षजो न तिग्माः सुसंशिता वक्ष्यो वक्षणेस्थाः

krīḷan no raśma ā bhuvaḥ sam bhasmanā vāyunā vevidānaḥ | tā asya san dhṛṣajo na tighmāḥ susaṃśitā vakṣyo vakṣaṇesthāḥ

Beam of light, come to us in sportive fashion, finding thyself close to the wind that fans thee. These flames of his are wasting flames, like arrows keen-pointed, sharpened, on his breast.
