प्रवृण्वन्तो अभियुजः सुष्वये वरिवोविदः । स्वयं स्तोत्रे वयस्कृतः ॥
pravṛṇvanto abhiyujaḥ suṣvaye varivovidaḥ | svayaṃ stotre vayaskṛtaḥ ||
Driving off foes, bestowing room upon the presser, willingly Bringing their praiser vital force.

वृथा क्रीळन्त इन्दवः सधस्थम् अभ्य् एकम् इत् । सिन्धोर् ऊर्मा व्य् अक्षरन् ॥
vṛthā krīḷanta indavaḥ sadhastham abhy ekam it | sindhor ūrmā vy akṣaran ||
Lightly disporting them, the drops flow to one common reservoir, And fall into the river's wave.
Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
एते विश्वानि वार्या पवमानास आशत । हिता न सप्तयो रथे ॥
ete viśvāni vāryā pavamānāsa āśata | hitā na saptayo rathe ||
These Pavamanas have obtained all blessings much to be desired, Like coursers harnessed to a car.
Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
आस्मिन् पिशङ्गम् इन्दवो दधाता वेनम् आदिशे । यो अस्मभ्यम् अरावा ॥
āsmin piśaṅgam indavo dadhātā venam ādiśe | yo asmabhyam arāvā ||
With view to us, O Soma-drops, bestow his manifold desire On him who yet hath given us naught.
Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
ऋभुर् न रथ्यं नवं दधाता केतम् आदिशे । शुक्राः पवध्वम् अर्णसा ॥
ṛbhur na rathyaṃ navaṃ dadhātā ketam ādiśe | śukrāḥ pavadhvam arṇasā ||
Bring us our wish with this design, as a wright brings his new-wrought wheel: Flow pure and shining with the stream.
Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
एत उ त्ये अवीवशन् काष्ठां वाजिनो अक्रत । सतः प्रासाविषुर् मतिम् ॥
eta u tye avīvaśan kāṣṭhāṃ vājino akrata | sataḥ prāsāviṣur matim ||
These drops have cried with resonant voice: like swift steeds they have run the course, And roused the good man's hymn to life.
Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
