Sukta 5.42
दमूनसो अपसो ये सुहस्ता वृष्णः पत्नीर्नद्यो विभ्वतष्टाः । सरस्वती बृहद्दिवोत राका दशस्यन्तीर्वरिवस्यन्तु शुभ्राः ॥
damū́naso apáso yé suhástā vṛ́ṣṇaḥ pátnīr nádyo vibhvatáṣṭāḥ | sárasvatī bṛhaddívota rākā́ daśasyántīr varivasyantu śubhrā́ḥ ||
May the house-lords, the active powers with good hands— the rivers, consorts of the mighty—well-fashioned, bring us widening. Sarasvatī, and Bṛhaddivā, and also Rākā, the bright goddesses who serve and cherish, may they grant us spaciousness and right felicity.
