Translation

Ia telah mendekat dan mara ke hadapan; dalam diriku ditegakkan suatu manas (fikiran) yang baik—manas yang menaruh harap kepada para dewa. Mendekat sang pembawa berbelakang luas; mengikutinya para vipra dan rsi bersukacita. Demi pertambahan para dewa, kami menjalin ikatan penyatuan yang baik, sebagai sahabat sejalan.
