2For this his mighty deed is Visnu lauded, like some wild beast, dread, prowling, mountain−roaming; He within whose three wide−extended paces all living creatures have their habitation.

3Let the hymn lift itself as strength to Visnu, the Bull far−striding, dwelling on the mountains, Him who alone with triple step hath measured this common dwelling−place, long, far extended.

4Him whose three places that are filled with sweetness, imperishable, joy as it may list them, Who verily alone upholds the threefold, the earth, the heaven, and all living creatures.

5May I attain to that his well−loved mansion where men devoted to the Gods are happy. For there springs, close akin to the Wide−Strider, the well of meath in Visnu's highest footstep.

6Fain would we go unto your dwelling−places where there are many−horned and nimble oxen, For mightily, there, shineth down upon us the widely−striding Bull's sublimest mansion.
