Mantra 1
Sukta 58
यज्ञः। घृतस्य जूतिः समना सदेवा संवत्सरं हविषा वर्धयन्ती । श्रोत्रं चक्षुः प्राणोच्छिन्नो नो अस्त्वच्छिन्ना वयमायुषो वर्चसः
yajñáḥ | ghṛtásya jūtíḥ samanā́ sádevā saṃvatsaráṃ havíṣā vardháyantī | śrótraṃ cákṣuḥ prāṇócchinnó no astv ácchinnā vayám ā́yuṣo várcasaḥ
The Sacrifice—ghee’s driving impulse—harmonizing, god-attended, with oblation makes the year to wax. Let not our hearing, sight, nor breath be cut away: unshorn may we abide, in lifetime and in splendour.
祭祀（yajña）——由酥油（ghṛta）所驱策的冲力——调和一致，诸神同在，以供献（havis）使岁年增长。愿我们的听觉、视觉与呼吸不被割断；愿我们不被剪损，得以安住于寿命与光辉（varcas）之中。
Rishi: Atharvanic tradition (late AV collections; specific r̥ṣi attribution varies by anukramaṇī)
Devata: Yajña (Sacrifice) as personified power; also implicitly Prāṇa and Varcas
Chandas: Mixed/late AV style; predominantly Anuṣṭubh-like cadence with expanded pādas
