Transliteration
bráhmāṇi me matáyaḥ śáṃ sutā́saḥ śúṣma iyarti prá-bhṛto me ádriḥ | ā́ śāsate práti haryanty ukthé imā́ hárī vahatas tā́ no áccha
Translation
Mes formules brahmaniques, mes pensées, sont pour le bien ; les libations pressées — ma vigueur — s’éveillent ; mon adrí, la pierre à presser, levée, pousse. Ils donnent l’ordre ; à l’uktha ils se réjouissent : ô vous deux coursiers fauves, portez cela ici, vers nous.
