AVŚ 5.5.8

सिलाची नाम कानीनो ऽजबभ्रु पिता तव । अश्वो यमस्य यः श्यावस् तस्य हास्नास्य् उक्षिता ॥८॥

silācī nāma kānīno 'jababhru pitā tava | aśvo yamasya yaḥ śyāvas tasya hāsnāsy ukṣitā ||8||

Devanagari rendered by HREEM from the edition's roman (IAST) text; the IAST is the edition's own.

Silācī́ by name—thy father, O goat-brown one, is a maid's son; Yama's horse that is dark brown (çyāvá)—with its mouth (? blood ?) art thou sprinkled.

Translated by William Dwight Whitney (1905)
