AVŚ 5.3.8

उरुव्यचा नो महिषः शर्म यछत्व् अस्मिन् हवे पुरुहूतः पुरुक्षु । स नः प्रजायै हर्यश्व मृडेन्द्र मा नो रीरिषो मा परा दाः ॥८॥

uruvyacā no mahiṣaḥ śarma yachatv asmin have puruhūtaḥ purukṣu | sa naḥ prajāyai haryaśva mṛḍendra mā no rīriṣo mā parā dāḥ ||8||

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

Let the bull (mahiṣá) of wide expanse grant us protection, having much food (-kṣú), [he] the much-invoked in this invocation; do thou be gracious unto our progeny, O thou of the bay horses; O Indra, harm us not, do not abandon us.

Translated by William Dwight Whitney (1905)
