English Translation (Griffith/Whitney)

With Iḍā, as we pour, with ghee I worship the Gods. May we, unharmed, enter together our homes—approaching (them) rich in cattle.

Translation

हम इडा के साथ भगवानों को पुकारते हैं और घी डाल के पूजा करते हैं। भगवान हमारे घर आने में कोई तकलीफ न दें। हम अपने घर जाएं, और साथ में गायें भी हो, मतलब खुशहाल घर।
