To various plants (?)
O ābayu, non-ābayu! thy juice is sharp (ugrá), O ābayu! unto thy broth do we eat.
vihahlo nāma te pitā madāvatī nāma te mātā sa hina tvam asi yas tvam ātmānam āvayaḥ
Vihálha by name is thy father, madávatī ('intoxicated') by name is thy mother; for thou art he, not thyself, thou that didst consume thyself.
tauvilike 'velayāvāyam ailaba ailayīt babhruś ca babhrukarṇaś cāpehi nirāla
O tāuvilikā, quiet down; this racket hath quieted down; both the brown and the brown-eared one: go away, O nirāla!
alasālāsi pūrva silāñjālāsy uttarā
Alasálā art thou first; silā́njālā art thou after; nīlāgalasálā.
