ā́ vo yantūdavāhā́so adyá vṛ́ṣṭiṃ yé víśve marúto junánti | ayáṃ yó agnír marutaḥ samíddha etáṃ juṣadhvaṃ kavayo yuvānaḥ ||
Translation
ഹേ ഉദവാഹാസോ—ജലങ്ങളെ കൊണ്ടുവരുന്നവരേ, ഇന്ന് ഞങ്ങളിലേക്കു വരുവിൻ; നിങ്ങൾ എല്ലാം മരുതോ വൃഷ്ടിയെ മുന്നോട്ടു തള്ളുന്നവർ. ഇവിടെ ഈ അഗ്നി, ഹേ മരുതോ, സമിദ്ധ—ജ്വലിപ്പിക്കപ്പെട്ടിരിക്കുന്നു; ഏതം ജുഷധ്വം—ഇവനിൽ ആസ്വദിക്കുവിൻ, ഹേ കവയഃ, യുവാനഃ.
