1. FORWARD upon their way
proceed the ready teams, the lovely songs.
Further them glorious Pusan with yoked chariot,
and the Mighty Twain!
2 With sacred hymns let this
man here, this singer, win the God to whom
Belong this majesty and might. He hath observed
our eulogies.
3 Pusan the Strong hath
knowledge of sweet praises even as Indu hath.
He dews our corn with moisture, he bedews the
pasture of our kine.
4 We will bethink ourselves of
thee, O Pusan, O thou God, as One.
Who brings fulfilment of our hymns, and stirs
the singer and the sage.
5 joint-sharer of each
sacrifice, the driver of the chariot steeds;
The Rsi who is good to man, the singer's Friend
and faithful Guard.
6 One who is Lord of Suca,
Lord of Suca caring for herself:
Weaving the raiment of the sheep and making
raiment beautiful.
7 The mighty Lord of spoil and
wealth, Strong Friend of all prosperity;
He with light movement shakes his beard, lovely
and ne'er to be deceived.
8 O Pusan, may those goats of
thine turn hitherward thy chariot-pole.
Friend of all suppliants; art thou, born in old
time, and arm and sure.
9 May the majestic Pusan speed
our chariot with his power and might.
May he increase our store of wealth and listen
to this call of ours.
