श्येनो न योनिं सदनं धिया कृतं हिरण्ययमासदं देव एषति । ए रिणन्ति बर्हिषि प्रियं गिराश्वो न देवाँ अप्येति यज्ञियः ॥

śyénो ná yóniṁ sádanam dhiyā́ kṛtáṁ hiraṇyáyam āsádaṁ devá éṣati | ā īm riṇanti bárhiṣi priyáṁ girā́ aśvó ná devā́n apyéti yajñíyaḥ ||

Như chim ưng tìm tổ, Ngài tìm đến chỗ ngồi do tuệ quán (dhī) tạo tác—nơi an nghỉ bằng vàng mà vị Thần hằng ước vọng. Bằng lời tụng ca yêu dấu, người ta khiến Ngài chuyển động trên cỏ thiêng barhis; như tuấn mã, Ngài tiến về các thần, xứng đáng với lễ hiến.
