Sukta 20
गो॒सनिं॒ वाच॑मुदेयं॒ वर्च॑सा मा॒भ्युदि॑हि । आ रु॑न्धां स॒र्वतो॑ वा॒युस्त्वष्टा॒ पोषं॑ दधातु मे
gósanim vā́cam udéyam várcasā mā́bhyúdihi | ā́ rundhāṃ sárvato vāyús tváṣṭā póṣaṃ dadhātu me
A cow-winning speech may I send forth; with splendour shine thou upon me. From every side let Vāyu enclose (and guard); let Tvaṣṭṛ set nourishment upon me.
Semoga aku melafazkan ucapan yang memenangkan lembu; dengan seri, bersinarlah atas diriku. Dari segala sisi biarlah Vāyu mengepung (melindungi); biarlah Tvaṣṭṛ meletakkan pemeliharaan dan zat pada diriku.
