Encircled, the lord, the wise one, with a leafy staff sought the thirsty, sprinkling like a tube. May this pierced chariot of ours prevail, auspicious and full of songs, be firm and lasting.
As a wife who has been abandoned rejoices to find her husband, as a cloud expanding when pouringforth rain with the aid of the earth's disc; with her eager (to recover the cattle) for our charioteer, may we win (theprize), may good fortune, together with food, be given to us.
Like one forsaken, she hath found a husband, and teemed as if her breast were full and flowing. With swiftly-racing chariot may we conquer, and rich and blessed be our gains in battle.
