यु॒वं पय॑ उ॒स्रिया॑यामधत्तं प॒क्वमा॒माया॒मव॒ पूर्व्यं॒ गोः । अ॒न्तर्यद्व॒निनो॑ वामृतप्सू ह्वा॒रो न शुचि॒र्यज॑ते ह॒विष्मा॑न्
yuvaṃ paya usriyāyāmadhattaṃ pakvamāmāyāmava pūrvyaṃ goḥ antaryadvanino vāmṛtapsū hvāro na śuciryajate haviṣmān
You poured the milky streams; the first cattle were ripened. In the midst the singers, with immortal juices, called the priest; the oblation was not impure.
Youhave restored milk to the cow; you have (brought) down the prior mature (secretion) into the unripe (or barren udder) of the cow; the devout offerer of the oblation worships you, whose forms are truth, (as vigilant in the midst of the ceremony), as a thief (in the midst) of a thicket.
Ye have deposited, matured within her, in the raw cow the first milk of the milch-cow, Which the bright offerer, shining like a serpent mid trees, presents to you whose form is perfect.
