IAST Transliteration

út tíṣṭha préhi prá dravókaḥ kṛṇuṣva salilé sadhásthe | tátra tváṃ pitṛ́bhiḥ saṃvidānáḥ sáṃ sómena mádasva sáṃ svadhā́bhiḥ ||

English Translation (Griffith/Whitney)

Rise up; go forth: make thee a flowing home, a station in the waters. There, in accord with the Fathers, rejoice together with Soma, rejoice together with the svadhā-powers and offerings.

Translation

উঠে দাঁড়াও; অগ্রসর হও; জলের মধ্যে তোমার প্রবাহমান নিবাস, তোমার আসন স্থাপন করো। সেখানে পিতৃগণের সঙ্গে সম্বিদান (সম্মত) হয়ে, সোমের সঙ্গে একত্রে আনন্দ করো; স্বধা-শক্তি ও স্বধা-আহুতির সঙ্গে একত্রে তৃপ্ত হও।
