ता आप ऐक्षन्त बह्व्यः स्याम प्रजायेमहीति ता अन्नमसृजन्त तस्माद्यत्र क्व च वर्षति तदेव भूयिष्ठमन्नं भवत्यद्भ्य एव तदध्यन्नाद्यं जायते ॥ ६.२.४ ॥

In plain words

Those waters thought, 'Let us be many; let us be born.' They sent forth food. Therefore, wherever it rains, there food is most abundant. From the waters alone is food to eat born.
