प्र वः स्पळक्रन्त्सुविताय दावनेऽर्चा दिवे प्र पृथिव्या ऋतं भरे । उक्षन्ते अश्वान्तरुषन्त आ रजोऽनु स्वं भानुं श्रथयन्ते अर्णवैः ॥

prá vaḥ spáḷ akran suvitā́ya dā́vane’rcā́ divé prá pṛthivyā́ ṛtáṃ bhare | ukṣánte áśvān tárūṣanta ā́ rájo’nu sváṃ bhā́nuṃ śráthayante arṇaváiḥ ||

Maju kalian melompat menuju perjalanan yang mujur dan pemberian; aku membawa nyanyian puja kepada Langit dan Bumi, mengusung Ṛta. Kuda-kuda kalian mengembang oleh daya; mereka menerjang ruang-ruang bercahaya, dan sepanjang sinar mereka sendiri mereka melonggarkan banjir-banjir—membebaskan arus kelimpahan yang mengalir.
