तावदुषो राधो अस्मभ्यं रास्व यावत्स्तोतृभ्यो अरदो गृणाना । यां त्वा जज्ञुर्वृषभस्या रवेण वि दृळ्हस्य दुरो अद्रेरौर्णोः ॥

ହେ ଉଷା, ଆମକୁ ସେତିକି ରାଧସ୍‌ (ସମୃଦ୍ଧି/ଦାନ) ଦିଅ, ଯେତିକି ତୁମେ ସ୍ତୋତୃମାନଙ୍କୁ—ଗାନ କରୁଥିବା ଋଷିମାନଙ୍କୁ—ଦେଉଛ; ସେମାନେ ତୁମକୁ ସ୍ତୁତି କରନ୍ତି। ବୃଷଭ (ଇନ୍ଦ୍ର)ଙ୍କ ଗର୍ଜନ ଦ୍ୱାରା ସେମାନେ ତୁମକୁ ଜାଣିଲେ; ଯେତେବେଳେ ତୁମେ ଦୃଢ଼ ଶିଳାର ଅଟଳ ଦ୍ୱାରଗୁଡ଼ିକୁ ବିସ୍ତୃତ ଭାବେ ଖୋଲି, ଗୁପ୍ତ ଆଲୋକକୁ ପ୍ରକଟ କଲେ।
