त्रिः सप्त सस्रा नद्यो महीरपो वनस्पतीन्पर्वताँ अग्निमूतये । कृशानुमस्तॄन्तिष्यं सधस्थ आ रुद्रं रुद्रेषु रुद्रियं हवामहे ॥

ಮೂರು ಬಾರಿ ಏಳು ಹರಿಯುವ ನದಿಗಳು, ಮಹಾ ಜಲಗಳು, ವನಸ್ಪತಿಗಳ ಅಧಿಪತಿಗಳು, ಪರ್ವತಗಳು—ಮತ್ತು ನಮ್ಮ ರಕ್ಷಣೆಗೆ ಅಗ್ನಿಯನ್ನು ನಾವು ಆಹ್ವಾನಿಸುತ್ತೇವೆ. ವ್ಯಾಪಿಸುವ ಕೃಶಾನುನ್ನು, ಮತ್ತು ಸಾಮಾನ್ಯ ಆಸನದಲ್ಲಿ ತಿಷ್ಯನನ್ನೂ (ಆಹ್ವಾನಿಸುತ್ತೇವೆ); ಹಾಗೆಯೇ ರುದ್ರರಲ್ಲಿ ರುದ್ರಿಯನಾದ ರುದ್ರನನ್ನು ನಾವು ಕರೆಯುತ್ತೇವೆ—ನಮ್ಮೊಳಗೆ ಉಗ್ರ-ಚಿಕಿತ್ಸಕ ಶಕ್ತಿಯನ್ನು ಜಾಗೃತಗೊಳಿಸಲು.
