गौर् अमीमेद् अनु वत्सम् मिषन्तम् मूर्धानं हिङ्ङ् अकृणोन् मातवा उ । सृक्वाणं घर्मम् अभि वावशाना मिमाति मायुम् पयते पयोभिः ॥

gaur amīmed anu vatsam miṣantam mūrdhānaṃ hiṅṅ akṛṇon mātavā u | sṛkvāṇaṃ gharmam abhi vāvaśānā mimāti māyum payate payobhiḥ ||

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

The cow hath lowed after her blinking youngling; she licks his forehead, as she lows, to form it. His mouth she fondly calls to her warm udder, and suckles him with milk while gently lowing.

Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
