Samhita Patha (Devanagari)
एष स्तोमो वरुण मित्र तुभ्यं सोमः शुक्रो न वायवेऽयामि । अविष्टं धियो जिगृतं पुरंधीर्यूयं पात स्वस्तिभिः सदा नः ॥
Transliteration
eṣá stómó varuṇa mitra túbhyaṃ sómaḥ śukró ná vāyáve ’yāmi | aviṣṭáṃ dhíyo jigṛtáṃ puráṃdhīr yūyáṃ pāta svastíbhíḥ sádā naḥ ||
Translation
伐楼那、密多罗啊，此颂赞之歌献给你们——我奉上它，如同为伐由（Vāyu）榨出的明亮苏摩（Soma）。富饶之力啊，请摄受我们趋向所愿之目标的思虑；并愿你们常以安泰之境护佑我们。
