May the Maruts, exulting, come with shining chariots, with splendid steeds and winged horses. May this strongest of rains not fail to reach us; may it not be withheld from our wealth of good influence.
Come, Maruts, with your brilliant light-moving, well-weaponed, steed-harnessed chariots; doers of good deeds, descend like birds, (and bring us) abundant food.
COME hither, Maruts, on your lightning laden cars, sounding with sweet songs, armed with lances, winged with steeds. Fly unto us with noblest food, like birds, O ye of mighty power.
