युष्माकं देवा अवसाहनि प्रिय ईजानस् तरति द्विषः । प्र स क्षयं तिरते वि महीर् इषो यो वो वराय दाशति ॥
yuṣmākaṃ devā avasāhani priya ījānas tarati dviṣaḥ | pra sa kṣayaṃ tirate vi mahīr iṣo yo vo varāya dāśati ||
Through your kind favour, Gods, on some auspicious day, the worshipper subdues his foes. That man increases home and strengthening ample food who brings you offerings as ye list.
नहि व ऊतिः पृतनासु मर्धति यस्मा अराध्वं नरः । अभि व आवर्त् सुमतिर् नवीयसी तूयं यात पिपीषवः ॥
nahi va ūtiḥ pṛtanāsu mardhati yasmā arādhvaṃ naraḥ | abhi va āvart sumatir navīyasī tūyaṃ yāta pipīṣavaḥ ||
Your succour in the battle injures not the man to whom ye, Heroes, grant your gifts. May your most recent favour turn to us again. Come quickly, ye who fain would drink.
o ṣu ghṛṣvirādhaso yātanāndhāṃsi pītaye | imā vo havyā maruto rare hi kam mo ṣv anyatra gantana ||
Come hitherward to drink the juice, O ye whose bounties give you joy. These offerings are for you, these, Maruts, I present. Go not to any place but this.
आ च नो बर्हिः सदताविता च न स्पार्हाणि दातवे वसु । अस्रेधन्तो मरुतः सोम्ये मधौ स्वाहेह मादयाध्वै ॥
ā ca no barhiḥ sadatāvitā ca na spārhāṇi dātave vasu | asredhanto marutaḥ somye madhau svāheha mādayādhvai ||
Sit on our sacred grass, be graciously inclined to give the wealth for which we long, To take delight, ye Maruts, Friends of all, with Svaha, in sweet Soma juice.
Decking the beauty of their forms in secret the Swans with purple backs have flown down hither. Around me all the Company hath settled, like joyous Heroes glad in our libation.
यो नो मरुतो अभि दुर्हृणायुस् तिरश् चित्तानि वसवो जिघांसति । द्रुहः पाशान् प्रति स मुचीष्ट तपिष्ठेन हन्मना हन्तना तम् ॥
yo no maruto abhi durhṛṇāyus tiraś cittāni vasavo jighāṃsati | druhaḥ pāśān prati sa mucīṣṭa tapiṣṭhena hanmanā hantanā tam ||
Maruts, the man whose wrath is hard to master, he who would slay us ere we think, O Vasus, May he be tangled in the toils of mischief; smite ye him down with your most flaming weapon.
