úd vṛha rákṣaḥ sahá-mūlam indra vṛścā́ mádhyaṃ práty agraṃ śṛṇīhi | ā́ kī́vataḥ salalū́kaṃ cakartha brahmadvíṣa tápuṣiṃ hetím asyá ||

Wyrwij Rakszę z samym korzeniem, o Indro; odetnij jego środek, uderz jego przód. Położyłeś kres skąpcu i krzywemu; przeciw nienawidzącemu świętego słowa wykowałeś płonącą broń: ostrze tapasu na jego zgubę.
