उ॒भा शंसा॒ नर्या॒ माम॑विष्टामु॒भे मामू॒ती अव॑सा सचेताम् । भूरि॑ चिद॒र्यः सु॒दास्त॑राये॒षा मद॑न्त इषयेम देवाः
ubhā śaṃsā naryā māmaviṣṭāmubhe māmūtī avasā sacetām bhūri cidaryaḥ sudāstarāyeṣā madanta iṣayema devāḥ
Both praised the men and approached me; both approached me awake and conscious. Abundant was the offering for the bright one; these the gods desire, that we may long for them.
May both these, accepting praise, and friendly to man, be favourable to me; may they both be associated as guardians for my protection; deities, we your adorers, propitiating you with (sacrificial) food, desire ample (wealth), for the sake of makign liberal donations.
May both these Friends of man, who bless, preserve me, may they attend me with their help and favour. Enrich the man more liberal than the godless. May we, ye Gods, be strong with food rejoicing.
