Delights to laud their ancient name.

In days of yore their empire dread

O'er earth and woods and ocean spread.

Danú was mother of a child,

O hero, Aśvagríva styled,

And Narak next and Kálak came

Of Kálaká, celestial dame.

Of Támrá, too, five daughters bright

In deathless glory sprang to light.

Ennobling fame still keeps alive
