Transliteration
sámindra ṇo mánasā néṣi góbhíḥ sám sūríbhiḥ harivaḥ sám svastí | sám bráhmaṇā deváhitaṃ yád ásti sám devā́nāṃ sumatyā́ yajñíyānām ||
Translation
हे इंद्रा, मनाने आम्हाला एकत्र ने; गोभिः (किरण/गायी) सह, सूरिभिः (प्रबुद्ध ऋषी) सह, हे हरिवः—एकत्र स्वस्तीत. तसेच ब्रह्मणा—जे देवहित, देवस्थापित आहे—त्याद्वारे आम्हाला एकत्र ने; आणि यज्ञिय देवांच्या सुमतीने (सद्बुद्धीने)ही.
