इन्द्र क्रतुं न आ भर पिता पुत्रेभ्यो यथा शिक्षा णो अस्मिन्पुरुहूत यामनि जीवा ज्योतिरशीमहि
indra kratuṃ na ā bhara pitā putrebhyo yathā śikṣā ṇo asminpuruhūta yāmani jīvā jyotiraśīmahi
índra krátum na ā́ bhara pitā́ putrébhyo yáthā śíkṣā ṇo asmín puru-hūta yā́mani jī́vā jyótir aśīmahi
يا إندرا، احمل إلينا كْرَتُو—العزم المقدّس والقوّة—كما يعلّم الأب أبناءه؛ يا بُرُهُوتا، يا كثيرَ الدعاء، في هذا اليامَن (النسك) لعلّنا، ونحن أحياء، ننال الجيوتيه—نورَ الازدهار.
