Sanskrit recitationRig Veda 10.70.11

ā́gne vaha váruṇam iṣṭáye na índraṃ divó marúto antárikṣāt | sīdantu bárhir víśva ā́ yajatrā́ḥ svā́hā devā́ amṛ́tā mādayantām ||

O Agni, bring uns Varuṇa zur Erfüllung des Begehrten; bring Indra vom Himmel, die Maruts aus dem Luftraum. Mögen alle verehrungswürdigen Götter auf dem Barhis Platz nehmen; svāhā — mögen die unsterblichen Götter sich am Opfer in uns erfreuen.
