प्र वः॒ पान्तं॑ रघुमन्य॒वोऽन्धो॑ य॒ज्ञं रु॒द्राय॑ मी॒ळ्हुषे॑ भरध्वम् । दि॒वो अ॑स्तो॒ष्यसु॑रस्य वी॒रैरि॑षु॒ध्येव॑ म॒रुतो॒ रोद॑स्योः
pra vaḥ pāntaṃ raghumanyavo'ndho yajñaṃ rudrāya mīḷhuṣe bharadhvam divo astoṣyasurasya vīrairiṣudhyeva maruto rodasyoḥ
Go forth to the guarding Raghumanayu, blind one, perform the sacrifice to Rudra; draw near, support the strong. May the Maruts, the roarers, celebrate the day's and night's delight with heroic deeds.
Present, mild-tempered (priests), the sacrificial viands which you have prepared, to there warm-showering Rudra. I praise him who, with his heroid (followers) as (with shafts) from a quiver, expelled (the asuras) from heaven; and (I praise) the Maruts, (who abide) between heaven and earth.
SAY, bringing sacrifice to bounteous Rudra, This juice for drink to you whose wrath is fleeting! With Dyaus the Asura's Heroes I have lauded the Maruts as with prayer to Earth and Heaven.
