Translations signed

Sakra who knoweth well all human actions hath with his eager Friends let loose the waters. They with their songs cleft e'en the mountain open and willingly disclosed the stall of cattle.

Listen

No recitation by a named reciter exists for this verse yet. Around eleven śākhās are still recited by an unbroken chain of teachers, and recording them is the most time-critical work in this project. If you recite, please get in touch.
