Awake, O bounteous one, to this my speech, the laudation which Vasiṣṭha chants for thee: these sacred formulations, at the common feast, do thou accept with favour.
हे मघवन्, माझी ही वाणी जागृत होऊन ऐक—वसिष्ठ तुझ्यासाठी जी प्रशस्ती गातो. या सधमाद (सामूहिक यज्ञ-भोज) मध्ये ही ब्रह्म (पवित्र मंत्र-रचना) प्रसन्न होऊन स्वीकार.
Rishi: RV provenance; Vasiṣṭha is named as paradigmatic singer (not necessarily the AV compiler)
Devata: Indra
Chandas: Triṣṭubh-type (to be confirmed).
