जीमूतस्येव भवति प्रतीकं यद् वर्मी याति समदाम् उपस्थे । अनाविद्धया तन्वा जय त्वं स त्वा वर्मणो महिमा पिपर्तु ॥
jīmūtasyeva bhavati pratīkaṃ yad varmī yāti samadām upasthe | anāviddhayā tanvā jaya tvaṃ sa tvā varmaṇo mahimā pipartu ||
Devanagari rendered by HREEM from the edition's roman (IAST) text; the IAST is the edition's own.
The warrior's look is like a thunderous rain-cloud's, when, armed with mail, he seeks the lap of battle. Be thou victorious with unwounded body: so let the thickness of thy mail protect thee.
Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
