Transliteration

máhi psáraḥ súkṛtaṃ somyáṃ mádhurvī́ gavyū́tir áditer ṛtáṃ yaté | ī́śe yó vṛ́ṣṭer itá usríyo vṛ́ṣā́pāṃ netā́ yá itá-ūtír ṛgmyáḥ ||

Translation

മഹത്തായതാണ് ഒഴുകുന്ന ഗതി—സുകൃതമായ, സോമ്യ മധു; അദിതിയുടെ ഗവ്യൂതി—വിശാലമായ മേച്ചൽ-പാത—വ്യാപിച്ചിരിക്കുന്നു, മുന്നോട്ട് പോകുന്ന ഋത. ഇവിടെ നിന്നു മഴയെയും പ്രകാശമുള്ള ഉസ്രിയഃ—ഗോവുകൾ/കിരണ-ധേനുക്കൾ—എന്നിവയെയും ആധിപത്യം ചെയ്യുന്നവൻ; അവൻ വൃഷാ, ആപാം നേതാ; അവന്റെ ഇവിടെ നിന്നുള്ള ഊതി ഋഗ്മിയ—സ്തുത്യർഹ—ആകുന്നു.
