Mantra 1
Sukta 26
पशुसंवर्धनम्। एह यन्तु पशवो ये परेयुर्वायुर्येषां सहचारं जुजोष । त्वष्टा येषां रूपधेयानि वेदास्मिन् तान् गोष्ठे सविता नि यछतु
éha yántu paśávo yé paréyur vāyúr yéṣāṃ sahacārám jujóṣa | tváṣṭā yéṣāṃ rūpadhéyāni véda asmín tā́n góṣṭhe savitā́ ní yacchatu ||
Hither let the cattle come—those that have wandered forth—whose fellow-traveller the Wind hath welcomed as companion. Whose forms and proper marks Tvaṣṭṛ knoweth: those, in this cowshed, let Savitar set fast and hold in place.
愿那些走失而远去的牲畜回到此处来——风（Vāyu）已与它们相伴同行，并悦纳为同伴。 Tvaṣṭṛ知晓它们的形貌与标识：愿Savitar在这牛栏中将它们安置、系定，使之不再离散。
