Sukta 128
यो नो॑ भद्रा॒हमक॑रः सा॒यं नक्त॒मथो॒ दिवा॑ । तस्मै॑ ते नक्षत्रराज॒ शक॑धूम॒ सदा॒ नमः॑
yó no bhadrā́ham ákaroḥ sāyáṃ náktam átho dívā | tásmai te nákṣatra-rājan śakadhū́ma sadā́ námaḥ ||

Engkau yang telah menjadikan bagi kami hari yang bertuah, pada senja, pada malam, dan juga pada siang hari—kepada-Mu, wahai Raja Nakṣatra, wahai Śakadhūma, sembah dan hormat untuk selama-lamanya.
