Transliteration

ná te dūrḗ paramā́ cid rájāṃsy ā́ tu prá yāhi harivo hári-bhyām | sthirā́ya vṛ́ṣṇe sávānā kṛtémā́ yuktā́ grā́vāṇaḥ samidhānḗ agnáu ||

Translation

Not even the highest worlds are far from you; come then, drive forward with your two tawny powers. For the steadfast Bull the Soma-pressings are made ready; the pressing-stones are yoked where Agni is being kindled into the flame.
