Transliteration

yád indra diví pā́rye yád ṛ́dhag yád vā́ své sádane yátra vā́ ási | átó no yajñám aváse niyutvā́n sa-jóṣāḥ pāhi girvaṇo marúd-bhiḥ ||

Translation

Sama ada, wahai Indra, engkau di langit yang jauh, atau terasing, atau di singgahsanamu sendiri di mana pun engkau bersemayam—dari sana lindungilah yajña kami demi kuasa pelindungnya. Dengan kereta-kereta yang dipasang, seia-sekata, peliharalah kami, wahai tuan puji-pujian, bersama para Marut.
