Sukta 4
सोमे॑न पू॒र्णं क॒लशं॑ बिभर्षि॒ त्वष्टा॑ रु॒पाणां॑ जनि॒ता प॑शू॒नाम्। शि॒वास्ते॑ सन्तु प्रज॒न्वऽ इ॒ह या इ॒मा न्य॑स्मभ्यं॑ स्वधिते यच्छ॒ या अ॒मूः
sómena pūrṇáṃ kaláśaṃ bibharṣi tváṣṭā rūpā́ṇāṃ janitā́ paśūnā́m | śivā́s te santu prajanvá ihá yā́ imā́ ní asmábhyaṃ svadhite yaccha yā́ amū́ḥ
With Soma filled thou holdest the jar: Tvaṣṭṛ, begetter of forms, begetter of cattle. Auspicious be thy generative powers here—both these that are present; and, O well-edged (Svadhiti), grant us those that are yonder.
ممتلئًا بالسُّوما تمسك الجرّة؛ يا تْفَشْتْرِ، مُولِّدَ الأشكال، مُولِّدَ الماشية. لتكن قواك التناسليّة هنا شِيفا (مباركة/مُسعِدة)—هذه الحاضرة كلّها؛ ويا سْفَذِتي، يا حادَّ الحدّ، هَبْ لنا أيضًا تلك التي هناك، البعيدة.
