AVŚ 4.38.3

यायैः परिनृत्यत्य् आददाना कृतं ग्लहात् । सा नः कृतानि सीषती प्रहाम् आप्नोतु मायया । सा नः पयस्वत्य् ऐतु मा नो जैषुर् इदं धनम् ॥३॥

yāyaiḥ parinṛtyaty ādadānā kṛtaṃ glahāt | sā naḥ kṛtāni sīṣatī prahām āpnotu māyayā | sā naḥ payasvaty aitu mā no jaiṣur idaṃ dhanam ||3||

Devanagari rendered by HREEM from the edition's roman (IAST) text; the IAST is the edition's own.

She who dances about with the dice (? áya), taking to herself the winning from the pool—let her, trying to gain (?) for us the winnings, obtain the stake (? prahā́) by magic (māyā́); let her come to us rich in milk; let them not conquer from us this riches.

Translated by William Dwight Whitney (1905)
