शाक्मना शाको अरुणः सुपर्ण आ यो महः शूरः सनाद् अनीळः । यच् चिकेत सत्यम् इत् तन् न मोघं वसु स्पार्हम् उत जेतोत दाता ॥
śākmanā śāko aruṇaḥ suparṇa ā yo mahaḥ śūraḥ sanād anīḷaḥ | yac ciketa satyam it tan na moghaṃ vasu spārham uta jetota dātā ||
Devanagari rendered by HREEM from the edition's roman (IAST) text; the IAST is the edition's own.
Strong is the Red Bird in his strength, great Hero, who from of old hath had no nest to dwell in. That which he knows is truth and never idle: he wins and gives the wealth desired of many.
Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
