को अद्य युङ्क्ते धुरि गा ऋतस्य शिमीवतो भामिनो दुर्हृणायून् । आसन्निषून् हृत्स्वसो मयोभून् य एषाम् भृत्याम् ऋणधत् स जीवात् ॥
ko adya yuṅkte dhuri gā ṛtasya śimīvato bhāmino durhṛṇāyūn | āsanniṣūn hṛtsvaso mayobhūn ya eṣām bhṛtyām ṛṇadhat sa jīvāt ||
Devanagari rendered by HREEM from the edition's roman (IAST) text; the IAST is the edition's own.
Who yokes to-day unto the pole of Order the strong and passionate steers of checkless spirit, With shaft-armed mouths, heart-piercing, health-bestowing? Long shall he live who richly pays their service.
Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
