May the Maruts, aged hosts, wash away our tears and be pleasing in mind. May their strong breaths come forth; may not the chariot of disputes, nor the pair of friends oppose the gods.

Or may the Maruts, being of one mind, come from heaven and earth (to the sacrifice); they who are a mighty host, who have parti-coloured steeds, who are like protecting chariots, and who are devourers of foes may they come like friendly deities.

So may the Maruts, armed with mighty weapons, rest here on heaven and earth with hearts in concord, As Gods whose cars have dappled steeds like torrents, destroyers of the foe allies of Mitra.
