ऋ॒चा कु॒म्भीमध्य॒ग्नौ श्र॑या॒म्या सि॑ञ्चोद॒कमव॑ धेह्येनम्। प॒र्याध॑त्ता॒ग्निना॑ शमितारः शृ॒तो ग॑च्छतु सु॒कृतां॒ यत्र॑ लो॒कः
ṛcā́ kumbhī́m ádhy agnáu śrayāmy ā́ siñcodakám áva dhehy enam | paryā́dhattāgnínā śamitā́raḥ śṛtó gacchatu sukṛtā́ṃ yátra lokáḥ
With a verse I set the pot upon the fire: pour on the water; set him down therein. Let the quieting attendants encompass it with fire; when cooked, let him go where is the world of the well-deserving.
ऋचा कुम्भीमध्यग्नौ श्रयामि; सिञ्चोदकम्, अव धेह्येनम्। पर्याधत्ताग्निना शमितारः; शृतो गच्छतु सुकृतां यत्र लोकः।
