Meaning -
O intellectual and industrious pair of artisans, behaving like Pran and Udan, sprinkle with water our walking-path for two miles, and provide all places with sweet water.
-
Just as Pran and Udan, the ingoing and out-going breaths work together, so should the gracious pair of artisans work. Roads outside the city should he sprinkled with water for walking and suppressing dust. Pt. Jai Dev, Vidya Alankar, translates the verse, that Government should make arrangements for drinking-booths and schools for the spread of knowledge at a distance of every two miles. The Lucknow Vedic Sansthan translators interpret the verse as : O learned people, fill our temple of knowledge with your fine teachings. Spread your sweet instructions to distant places as well.
