vidyotamānā vidyudbhiḥ
stanantaḥ stanayitnubhiḥ
tīvrair marud-gaṇair nunnā
vavṛṣur jala-śarkarāḥ

vidyotamānāḥ — being illuminated; vidyudbhiḥ — by bolts of lightning; stanantaḥ — roaring; stanayitnubhiḥ — with thunder; tīvraiḥ — fearsome; marut-gaṇaiḥ — by the wind-gods; nunnāḥ — propelled; vavṛṣuḥ — they poured down; jala-śarkarāḥ — hailstones.

Propelled by the fearsome wind-gods, the clouds blazed with lightning bolts and roared with thunder as they hurled down hailstones.

Śrīla Śrīdhara Svāmī explains that the word marud-gaṇaiḥ indicates the seven great winds, such as Āvaha, who presides over the region of Bhuvarloka, and Pravaha, who holds the planets in their places.
