1. BE gathered
all the audience of the synod: let us begin their praise whose course is rapid.
Whate'er God Savitar this day
produces, may we be where the Wealthy One distributes.
2 This, dealt
from heaven ' may both the Worlds vouchsafe us, and Varuna, Indra, Aryaman, and
Mitra.
May Goddess Aditi assign us
riches, Vayu and Bhaga make them ours for ever.
3 Strong be
the man and full of power, O Maruts, whom ye, borne on by spotted coursers,
favour.
Him, too, Sarasvati and Agni
further, and there is none to rob him of his riches.
4 This Varuna
is guide of Law, he, Mitra, and Aryaman, the Kings, our work have finished.
Divine and foeless Aditi
quickly listens. May these deliver us unharmed from trouble.
5 With
offerings I propitiate the branches of this swift-moving God, the bounteous
Visnu.
Hence Rudra gained his
Rudra-strength: O Asvins, ye sought the house that hath celestial viands.
6 Be not thou
angry here, O glowing Pusan, for what Varutri and the Bounteous gave us.
May the swift-moving Gods
protect and bless us, and Vata send us rain, wha wanders round us.
7 Now have
both worlds been praised by the Vasisthas, and holy Mitra, Varuna, and Agni.
May they, bright Deities, make our
song supremest. Preserve us evermore, ye Gods, with blessings.
