Transliteration

ṛbhúṛbhukṣā́ ṛbhúrvīdható máda ā́ te hárī jūjuvāná sya vā́jinā | duṣṭáraṃ yásya sā́ma cid ṛ́dhag yajñó ná mā́nuṣaḥ ||

Translation

Wahai Ṛbhu, Ṛbhukṣa, Ṛbhu—datanglah ekstasi sang pengatur; kepadamu, wahai tuan kelimpahan, dua kuda tungganganmu dipasangkan bagi gerak yang bersemangat. Sukar diseberangi keselarasan miliknya itu; dan yajña menjadi daya yang terpisah, bukan-insani—suatu perbuatan yang terangkat melampaui akal biasa.
