Thou, O Soma, art the giver of wide protection from hostility, brought about by ourselves or by others; hail!
May the active one gladly partake of the ghee.
May Agni here make room for us;
May he go before us cleaving the foe;
Joyously may he conquer our foes;
May he win booty in the contest for booty.
Step widely, O Visnu;
Give us broad space for dwelling in;
Drink the ghee, thou whose birthplace is in the ghee;
Lengthen (the years) of the lord of the sacrifice.
Soma goeth, who knoweth the way;
He approacheth the place of the gods,
To sit on the birthplace of Order .
Thou art the seat of Aditi.
Do thou sit on the seat of Aditi.
This, god Savitr, is the Soma of you (gods); guard it; let it escape you not.
So, O Soma, god to the gods, hast thou gone, and I here man to man, with offspring, with increase of wealth.
Honour to the gods I Homage to the Pitrs!
Here (may) I (be free) from Varuna's noose; may I gaze on the heaven, on the light that is for all men,
Agni, lord of vows, thou art the vow-lord of vows.
May my body that bath been in thee be here in me; may thy body that hath been in me be there in thee.
Be aright the vows, O vow-lord, of both of us votaries.
