Sukta 2
अध्य॑क्षो वा॒जी मम॑ काम॑ उ॒ग्रः कृ॒णोतु॒ मह्य॑मसप॒त्नमे॒व। विश्वे॑ दे॒वा मम॑ ना॒थं भ॑वन्तु॒ सर्वे॑ दे॒वा हव॒मा य॑न्तु म इ॒मम्
adhyákṣo vājī́ máma kā́ma ugráḥ kṛṇótu máhyam asapátnam evá | víśve devā́ máma nā́thaṃ bhavantu sárve devā́ havám ā́ yantu me imám ||
Let fierce Kāma, mine overseer, victorious in might, make me—yea, make me—free from rivals. Let all the Gods become my patrons; let all the Gods come hither to this my call.
Biarlah Kāma yang garang—pengawas milikku, menang dalam kekuatan—menjadikan aku, bahkan menjadikan aku, bebas daripada para pesaing. Biarlah semua Dewa menjadi penaungku; biarlah semua Dewa datang ke mari kepada seruanku ini.
