Himavat

"Rich in frost by nature and now with the sun far away, the mountain Himavat lives up to its name — the snow-mountain — most manifestly.

"Those who dwell on the peaks of Mahendra, Himavat, Vindhya, and Kailāsa, on Mandara, on Pāṇḍuśikhara, and on the five mountains —

There the monkeys saw roots and fruits born from the flowing of the sacrificial food — tasting like nectar in flavor.

Let the god Kuṣṭha, the protector, come hither from beyond the Himavat, destroying all fever and all sorcery-born afflictions.

Where the boat alights, where is the summit of the Himavat — there is the fount of the immortal nectar;

Your stone-child is on the mountain, your water among the Himāvats — leaping thither, dance, O putthagī, among the herds of goats.
