सदा सुगः पितुमाँ अस्तु पन्था मध्वा देवा ओषधीः सं पिपृक्त । भगो मे अग्ने सख्ये न मृध्या उद्रायो अश्यां सदनं पुरुक्षोः ॥

sadā́ su-gáḥ pitu-mā́m̐ astu pánthā mádhvā devā́ oṣádhīḥ sáṃ pipṛkta | bhágo me agne sakhyé ná mṛdhyā údrāyo aśyāṃ sádanaṃ puru-kṣóḥ ||

Stets sei der Weg leicht und reich an wahrer Speise; in Süße, o Götter, fügt in uns die heilenden Kräfte, die Oṣadhīs, zusammen. Agni, sei mir Bhaga: versage nicht in Freundschaft; möge ich zu den Füllen des Seins emporsteigen und die Wohnstatt weiter Ausdehnung erreichen.
