शान्तिः। शं नः सत्यस्य पतयो भवन्तु शं नो अर्वन्तः शमु सन्तु गावः । शं न ऋभवः सुकृतः सुहस्ताः शं नो भवतु पितरो हवेषु
śā́ntiḥ | śáṃ naḥ satyásya pátayo bhavantu | śáṃ no árvantaḥ śám u santu gā́vaḥ || śáṃ na ŕ̥bhavaḥ sukṛ́taḥ suhástāḥ | śáṃ no bhavatu pitáro havéṣu ||
Peace. Weal unto us—may the lords of Truth be gracious; weal unto us—may our steeds be weal, yea, and may the cows be weal. Weal unto us—may the R̥bhus, skilful and good-handed, be gracious; weal unto us—may the Fathers be gracious at our invocations.
سلام. سلامٌ لنا—ليكن سادةُ الحقّ راضين؛ سلامٌ لنا—ولتكن خيولُنا سلامًا، نعم، ولتكن الأبقارُ سلامًا. سلامٌ لنا—ولتكن الرِّبهوات (R̥bhus)، الماهرون ذوو الأيدي الحسنة، راضين؛ سلامٌ لنا—وليكن الآباء/الأسلاف (Pitṛ) راضين عند نداءاتنا وابتهالاتنا.
