गोभिष्टरेमामतिं दुरेवां यवेन वा क्षुधं पुरुहूत विश्वे । वयं राजसु प्रथमा धनान्यरिष्टासो वृजनीभिर्जयेम

IAST Transliteration

góbhis tarémā́matiṃ durévāṃ yávena vā kṣúdhaṃ puruhūta víśve | vayáṃ rā́jasu prathamā́ dhánāny áriṣṭāso vṛjanī́bhir jayema ||

English Translation (Griffith/Whitney)

With cattle may we pass beyond distress and evil plight; with barley, too, may we in every wise pass beyond hunger, O Much-invoked. May we, unharmed, among the kings be foremost, and with our battle-bands win wealths.

Translation

ਗਾਂ-ਧਨ ਨਾਲ ਅਸੀਂ ਦੁੱਖ ਅਤੇ ਮੰਦੀ ਹਾਲਤ ਤੋਂ ਪਾਰ ਲੰਘੀਏ; ਜੌ (ਯਵ) ਨਾਲ ਵੀ, ਹੇ ਪੁਰੁਹੂਤ, ਹਰ ਤਰ੍ਹਾਂ ਭੁੱਖ ਤੋਂ ਪਾਰ ਹੋਈਏ। ਰਾਜਿਆਂ ਵਿਚ ਅਸੀਂ ਅਖੰਡ ਰਹਿ ਕੇ ਪਹਿਲੇ ਬਣੀਏ, ਅਤੇ ਆਪਣੀਆਂ ਜੰਗੀ ਟੋਲੀਆਂ ਨਾਲ ਧਨ ਜਿੱਤੀਏ।
