Sukta 14
अ॒जम॑नज्मि॒ पय॑सा घृ॒तेन॑ दि॒व्यं सु॑प॒र्नं प॑य॒सं बृ॒हन्त॑म्। तेन॑ गेष्म सुकृ॒तस्य॑ लो॒कं स्वऽरा॒रोह॑न्तो अ॒भि नाक॑मुत्त॒मम्
ajám anajmi páyasā ghṛténa divyáṃ supárṇaṃ páyaso bṛhántam | téna geṣma sukṛ́tasya lokáṃ svàr-ā́rohanto abhí nā́kam uttamám
The goat I anoint with milk and with ghee—heavenly, fair-winged, mighty with rich milk. Therewith may we attain the world of merit, as we climb to Svàr, unto the highest vault.
अजमनज्मि पयसा घृतेन—दिव्यं सुपर्णं पयसं बृहन्तम्। तेन गेष्म सुकृतस्य लोकं स्वऽरारोहन्तोऽभि नाकमुत्तमम्॥
