sanskrit

Annihilators (of adversaries) endowed with great strength, loud-shouting, unbending inseparable partakers of the evening oblation, constantly worshipped, and leaders (of the clouds), (the Maruts), by their person nal decorations,a re conspicuous (in the sky) like certain rays of the sun.

sanskrit

When, Maruts, flying like birds along a certain path (of the sky), you collect the moving passing (clouds) in the nearest portions (of the firmament), then, coming into collision with your cars, they pour forth (the waters); therefore, do you shower upon your worshipper the honey-coloured rain.

sanskrit

When they assemble (the clouds) for the good work, earth trembles at their impetuous movements, like a wife (whose husband is away); sportive, capricious, armed with bright weapons, and agitating (the solid rocks) they manifest their inherent might.

sanskrit

The troop of Maruts is self-moving deer-borne, ever young, lords of this (earth), and invested with vigour; you, who are sincere liberators from debt, irreproachable, and shedders of rain, are the protectors of this our rite.

sanskrit

We declare by our birth from our ancient sire, that the tongue (of praise) accompanies the manifesting (invocation of the Maruts) at the libations of the Soma; for, inasmuch as they stood by encouraging Indra in the conflict, they have acquired names that are to be recited at sacrifices.
