Invited are our Fathers, Soma-worthy: swiftly to the barhis, to the treasured, dear deposits. Let them come hither; here let them hearken; let them speak with authority; let them help and guard us.
Diundanglah para Pitṛ kami, yang layak bagi Soma; segeralah ke barhis, ke simpanan persembahan yang tersimpan, yang dikasihi. Biarlah mereka datang ke mari; di sini biarlah mereka mendengar; biarlah mereka bertutur dengan kewibawaan; biarlah mereka menolong dan melindungi kami.
