आच्छद्विधानैर्गुपितो बार्हतैः सोम रक्षितः । ग्राव्णामिच्छृण्वन्तिष्ठसि न ते अश्नाति पार्थिवः ॥

ā́cchadvidhānāir gupitó bā́rhataiḥ soma rakṣitáḥ | grā́vṇām íc chṛṇvánti tiṣṭhasi ná te aśnāti pā́rthivaḥ ||

Terselubung oleh bentuk-bentuk penutup dan dijaga oleh daya-daya yang agung, wahai Soma, engkau terlindungi. Engkau berdiri mendengarkan batu-batu pemeras; tiada makhluk duniawi dapat mengambil bagian darimu—sebab kebenaranmu disembunyikan dari genggaman luar.
