प्र मे॑ विवि॒क्वाँ अ॑विदन्मनी॒षां धे॒नुं चर॑न्तीं॒ प्रयु॑ता॒मगो॑पाम् स॒द्यश्चि॒द्या दु॑दु॒हे भूरि॑ धा॒सेरिन्द्र॒स्तद॒ग्निः प॑नि॒तारो॑ अस्याः
"MY thought with fine discernment hath discovered the Cow who wanders free without a herdsman, Her who hath straightway poured me food in plenty: Indra and Agni therefore are her praisers."
इन्द्रः॒ सु पू॒षा वृष॑णा सु॒हस्ता॑ दि॒वो न प्री॒ताः श॑श॒यं दु॑दुह्रे विश्वे॒ यद॑स्यां र॒णय॑न्त दे॒वाः प्र वोऽत्र॑ वसवः सु॒म्नम॑श्याम्
"Indra and Pûshan, deft of hand and mighty, well-pleased have drained the heaven's exhaustless udder. As in this praise the Gods have all delighted, may I win blessing here from you, O Vasus."
या जा॒मयो॒ वृष्ण॑ इ॒च्छन्ति॑ श॒क्तिं न॑म॒स्यन्ती॑र्जानते॒ गर्भ॑मस्मिन् अच्छा॑ पु॒त्रं धे॒नवो॑ वावशा॒ना म॒हश्च॑रन्ति॒ बिभ्र॑तं॒ वपूं॑षि
"Fain to lend vigour to the Bull, the siste.. with reverence recognize the germ within him. The Cows come lowing hither to the Youngling, to him endued with great and wondrous beauties."
अच्छा॑ विवक्मि॒ रोद॑सी सु॒मेके॒ ग्राव्णो॑ युजा॒नो अ॑ध्व॒रे म॑नी॒षा इ॒मा उ॑ ते॒ मन॑वे॒ भूरि॑वारा ऊ॒र्ध्वा भ॑वन्ति दर्श॒ता यज॑त्राः
"Fixing with thought, at sacrifice, the press-stones, I bid the well-formed Heaven and Earth come hither; For these thy flames, which give men boons in plenty, rise up on high, the beautiful, the holy."
या ते॑ जि॒ह्वा मधु॑मती सुमे॒धा अग्ने॑ दे॒वेषू॒च्यत॑ उरू॒ची तये॒ह विश्वाँ॒ अव॑से॒ यज॑त्रा॒ना सा॑दय पा॒यया॑ चा॒ मधू॑नि
"Agni, thy meath-sweet tongue that tastes fair viands, which among Gods is called the farextended,– Therewith make all the Holy Odes be seated here for our help, and feed them with sweet juices."
या ते॑ अग्ने॒ पर्व॑तस्येव॒ धारास॑श्चन्ती पी॒पय॑द्देव चि॒त्रा ताम॒स्मभ्यं॒ प्रम॑तिं जातवेदो॒ वसो॒ रास्व॑ सुम॒तिं वि॒श्वज॑न्याम्
"Let thy stream give us drink, O God, O Agni, wonderful and exhaustless like the rain-clouds. Thus care for us, O Vasu Jâtavedas, show us thy loving-kindness, reaching all men."
