mārgaṃ tāvac chṛṇu kathayatas tvatprayāṇānurūpaṃ saṃdeśaṃ me tadanu jalada śroṣyasi śrotrapeyam
khinnaḥ khinnaḥ śikhariṣu padaṃ nyasya gantāsi yatra kṣīṇaḥ kṣīṇaḥ parilaghu payaḥ srotasāṃ copabhujya //
Now listen, while I explain to you the idea of your road, where, during thy journey as often as thou art fatigued, thou canst put thy foot on the mountain—and if thou should’st have become attenuated, in the lovely water of what river thou can’st replenish thyself. Afterwards, O Cloud, thou shalt hear my message to be drunk in with (thine) ears.
