प्र ह्य् अच्छा मनीषा स्पार्हा यन्ति नियुतः । प्र दस्रा नियुद्रथः पूषा अविष्टु माहिनः ॥

यस्य त्यन् महित्वं वाताप्यम् अयं जनः । विप्र आ वंसद् धीतिभिश् चिकेत सुष्टुतीनाम् ॥
yasya tyan mahitvaṃ vātāpyam ayaṃ janaḥ | vipra ā vaṃsad dhītibhiś ciketa suṣṭutīnām ||
With sacred hymns let this man here, this singer, win the God to whom Belong this majesty and might. He hath observed our eulogies.
Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
स वेद सुष्टुतीनाम् इन्दुर् न पूषा वृषा । अभि प्सुरः प्रुषायति व्रजं न आ प्रुषायति ॥
sa veda suṣṭutīnām indur na pūṣā vṛṣā | abhi psuraḥ pruṣāyati vrajaṃ na ā pruṣāyati ||
Pusan the Strong hath knowledge of sweet praises even as Indu hath. He dews our corn with moisture, he bedews the pasture of our kine.
Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
मंसीमहि त्वा वयम् अस्माकं देव पूषन् । मतीनां च साधनं विप्राणां चाधवम् ॥
maṃsīmahi tvā vayam asmākaṃ deva pūṣan | matīnāṃ ca sādhanaṃ viprāṇāṃ cādhavam ||
We will bethink ourselves of thee, O Pusan, O thou God, as One. Who brings fulfilment of our hymns, and stirs the singer and the sage.

प्रत्यर्धिर् यज्ञानाम् अश्वहयो रथानाम् । ऋषिः स यो मनुर्हितो विप्रस्य यावयत्सखः ॥
pratyardhir yajñānām aśvahayo rathānām | ṛṣiḥ sa yo manurhito viprasya yāvayatsakhaḥ ||
joint-sharer of each sacrifice, the driver of the chariot steeds; The Rsi who is good to man, the singer's Friend and faithful Guard.
Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
आधीषमाणायाः पतिः शुचायाश् च शुचस्य च । वासोवायो ऽवीनाम् आ वासांसि मर्मृजत् ॥
ādhīṣamāṇāyāḥ patiḥ śucāyāś ca śucasya ca | vāsovāyo 'vīnām ā vāsāṃsi marmṛjat ||
One who is Lord of Suca, Lord of Suca caring for herself: Weaving the raiment of the sheep and making raiment beautiful.

इनो वाजानाम् पतिर् इनः पुष्टीनां सखा । प्र श्मश्रु हर्यतो दूधोद् वि वृथा यो अदाभ्यः ॥

आ ते रथस्य पूषन्न् अजा धुरं ववृत्युः । विश्वस्यार्थिनः सखा सनोजा अनपच्युतः ॥
ā te rathasya pūṣann ajā dhuraṃ vavṛtyuḥ | viśvasyārthinaḥ sakhā sanojā anapacyutaḥ ||
O Pusan, may those goats of thine turn hitherward thy chariot-pole. Friend of all suppliants; art thou, born in old time, and arm and sure.
