O Lady of Mānas(a), a refuge, kindly—Goddess, by the Gods measured out and built in the beginning—clothed in grass, benevolent art thou: then unto us grant wealth, with heroes (sons) therewith.
O Pani Mānasy, schronienie, łaskawa - Bogini, przez Bogów odmierzona i zbudowana na początku - odziana w trawę, dobroczynna jesteś: wtedy nam daj bogactwo, wraz z bohaterami.
